The 2004 Booz Allen Classic begins a new era for one of the area's top professional sporting events and its title sponsor - Booz Allen Hamilton Since moving to the Washington area in 1980, the tournament has distributed nearly $8 million to charities, half to local Washington area charities. Beginning with the 2004 Booz Allen Classic, tournament host Washington Golf Charities, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization formed in 2003 to host the Booz Allen Classic, and Booz Allen Hamilton have set a fund-raising goal of $1 million annually, with 100 percent going to Washington area charities, more than quadrupling any prior year's charitable giving to the local community.

KemperSports has operated the Tournament since 1979, when the Tournament originated in Charlotte.

The 2004 Booz Allen Classic has a tournament-record $4.8 million purse, with the champion collecting an all-time high $864,000 first-place check.
