Please visit StephenDoughtonfoundation.org My number one goal is to help find a cure to Leukemia an The Stephen Doughton Jr.

Foundation is a private non-profit family foundation established by Stephen and his family in 2008. The Foundation’s purpose is to raise donations to support Leukemia medical professionals and increase community awareness. In May 2006, Stephen was diagnosed with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). He was treated at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center (WFBMC) and is currently in remission. After enduring the horror of being a cancer patient and witnessing young children battling cancer, Stephen and his family decided to start a foundation in 2008. Since then they have raised over $140,000 for Leukemia research and patient assistance. Stephen graduated from UNC Charlotte in 2012 with a Degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology. He currently works for Rug Doctor as a National Account Manager and is based in Winston-Salem NC. In 2010 Stephen was awarded the Outstanding Fundraising Youth award by the Association of Fundraising Professionals. He continues to fundraise for research and patient assistance through the Stephen Doughton Jr. Foundation annual golf tournament and individual contributions.

This year the Stephen Doughton Jr. Foundation unfortunately did not hold its annual Golf Tournament due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The health and safety of our participants is the most important and we knew it wouldn’t be the same during this unprecedented year. We knew canceling it would mean we wouldn’t be raising as much money for Leukemia Research and Patient Assistance as years past. However, our donors stepped up and we still received many donations! We are happy to announce we will be donating $20,000 to Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center. Dr. Powell and his team will use these donations to continue to find ways to improve Leukemia patient’s lives through research and assistance.

2020 is a year we will never forget but as it comes to an end we want to say Thank You to all of our supporters and we look forward to seeing you all on the golf course next year!

Happy Holidays!

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we will not hold our annual golf tournament this Fall. The health and safety of all participants, staff, and volunteers is of upmost importance. We are grateful to everyone who has supported the tournament and Foundation for the past 11 years and we look forward to another successful fundraiser in 2021!

The Stephen Doughton Jr. Foundation will donate $40,000 to the Wake Forest Baptist Cancer Center in 2019. Our largest donation to date. This donation will be used by Dr. Bayard Powell and his team to initiate research projects. With the results of this initial research, they are able to apply for and receive larger grants that will fund further research in finding new and better ways to treat Leukemia. Over the last 11 years, the Foundation has donated over $255,000 to support research and patient assistance.

We would not be able to do this without so many who participate in our annual golf tournament year after year in addition to individual contributions. Thank you for your support and we look forward to 2020!

On October 30th Stephen, Kara, Mark and Susan presented a check for $35,000 to the Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center. This is the largest donation that the Foundation has donated in our 11 year history. We are very thankful for all of our supporters as we wouldn't be able to donate this amount without their gifts to the Foundation. We look forward to next year's golf tournament fundraiser as it is our goal to continue to give more funds each year.

Less than 2 weeks away from the golf tournament! Did you know that last year we were fortunate enough to donate $23,000 the Leukemia Research fund at Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center?

Through the start of our foundation in 2008, we have been able to raise over $140,000 going toward Leukemia research and patient assistance.

If you cannot make the golf tournament, please consider donating to our cause!

Did you know that September is blood cancer awareness month? Every hour, more than six people die from a blood cancer.

If you haven't already, sign up to be a part of the bone marrow registry via Be The Match. It is as easy as swabbing your cheek and mailing it back in!

YOU can be someone's cure!

Joining the registry is the first step to become a marrow donor. We will ask you a series of questions which include a brief medical history and contact information. The process should take around 10 minutes.

September is here which means we are closer to our annual golf tournament October 27! Be on the lookout for invitations in the mail or you can register online. We look forward to an even bigger turn out this year!
