WASHINGTON After a Miami youth basketball charity said it would not accept money from a charity golf event this weekend promoted by a Hialeah strip club at President Donald Trumps Doral resort, Trumps company canceled the event Wednesday evening.
The Trump Organization said it shelved Shadow Cabarets tournament after the Miami Allstars Foundation, the charity, dropped out, The Washington Post reported Wednesday evening.
The event was originally booked with the understanding that it would be raising money to support a local charity benefiting underprivileged children, a Trump Organization spokeswoman said in a statement to the Post. Now that the charity has removed its affiliation, the event will no longer be taking place at our property and all amounts paid will be refunded.
Carlos Alamilla, the director of the Miami All Stars, said his organization was unaware the charity event was run by Shadow Cabaret, a Hialeah strip club, until a Washington Post reporter called him about it. Alamilla said an event promoter had reached out to him to ask if his organization would like to benefit from a charity golf tournament at Trump Doral, and hed accepted despite his opposition to the president.
