Liberty Mutual Insurance announced today that more than 240 amateur golfers will participate in the Liberty Mutual Insurance Invitational National Finals at Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, North Carolina, March 6 - 10, 2013. The golfers represent winning foursomes from the charity golf tournament series hosted by Liberty Mutual Insurance and local charitable organizations across the country in 2012 that helped raise more than $5.6 million for national and local charities. A portion of the proceeds from the Liberty Mutual Insurance National Invitational Finals will also go to support Sandy Relief efforts of the American Red Cross in Moore County, North Carolina, and nationally.

"Local amateur golf events and their history of supporting charitable organizations align with our belief of doing the right thing in the communities in which we live and work," said Paul Alexander, Liberty Mutual Insurance chief communications officer. "We look forward to saluting the winning foursomes during the Finals tournament at Pinehurst Resort as well as all the golfers who played in tournaments last year to help raise much needed funds for communities across the country."
Torie Kranze, C.E.O. of the National Kidney Foundation of Louisiana said, "As the C.E.O. of the National Kidney Foundation of Louisiana and on behalf of the board of directors, staff, volunteer tournament committee, and most importantly, the patients we serve, I want to personally thank Liberty Mutual Insurance for its sponsorship of the four Liberty Mutual Invitational golf tournaments held each year throughout Louisiana. The tournaments raise over $275,000 which supports funding for local research, free community based health screenings for people at risk of kidney disease, summer camp for children on dialysis, and important health education campaigns."
Pinehurst Resort has been the site of some of professional golf's most prestigious golf tournaments and will host the 2014 U.S. Open Men’s and Women’s Championship.
