Additionally, the total includes $879,214 in support of Genesee County Charities. Overall, more than 35 charities were positively impacted by The Ally Challenge presented by McLaren in 2023, including a portion of the funds for 20 plus crucial programs identified by the tournament's primary beneficiary, United Way of Genesee County (UWGC).
