Jason Purcell, director of tennis at Kapalua Tennis, presents the donation to Chris Scharein, president of the Maui District Tennis Association.

KAPALUA – Kapalua Tennis recently raised $1,311 through its silent auction during the Kapalua Open, with all proceeds going to benefit the Maui District Tennis Association Scholarship Fund.

This fund supports deserving tennis teams and players from Maui to play at events across the region, Mainland and internationally.

Funds provided by the event help to support travel scholarships and awards for deserving tennis players of all ages to travel to these events. In exchange, the teams and players selected provide supportive community service hours back to the MDTA.

“We are pleased to be able to support the Maui District Association Scholarship Fund through our efforts. Supporting this great game and growth of tennis on Maui is an important goal for Kapalua Tennis,” said Jason Purcell, director of tennis.
