MIDDLETOWN – Catholic Charities of Orange, Sullivan & Ulster is now accepting reservations for its annual Golf for Charity Outing on Monday, September 16th at West Hills Country Club in Middletown.
The event raises funds to support the not-for-profit human service agency’s mission to provide help and create hope for people in need in Orange, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties. Catholic Charities’ community-based programs include emergency assistance with food, shelter, and other necessities, addiction prevention and education, treatment and recovery support for adolescents, adults, and family members, and immigration legal aid.
“Catholic Charities helps the most marginalized and vulnerable members of our community, regardless of their religion or ability to pay,” said Shannon Kelly, CEO, Catholic Charities of Orange, Sullivan & Ulster. “Requests for assistance with basic human needs have stretched our financial and human resources thin. The Golf for Charity Outing raises much-needed funds so Catholic Charities can continue to aid our neighbors who are struggling to get by.”
Now in its 18th year, the outing offers a variety of opportunities for support including foursomes and individual golfer spots, sponsorships, and tee sign advertisements. The day will start with a light breakfast during the check-in reception. The “scramble” format will tee off at 10 a.m. and a barbecue lunch will be served on the course. Prizes, raffles, and other festivities will wrap up the day with a buffet dinner under the tent. On the course, contests will include hole-in-one, closest-to-the-pin, and longest drive.
The fee per foursome is $880, or $230 for individual golfers. A variety of sponsorship opportunities – including tee signs for only $200 – are available. For reservations or more information, please contact Catholic Charities Office of Advancement at 845.294.5124, ext. 1005, or kristin.jensen@cccsos.org.
