$10,392 Raised for Local Kids!
Thank you to everyone who sponsored, donated, and played in our 18th annual Charity Golf Tournament!
With your support, we raised over $10,000 for local children in need - that’s enough to feed 30 kindergartners for the entire school year through the Backpack Program and provide a suitcase with necessities and comfort supplies to six children entering foster care. All that plus a beautiful day on the course!
Special shoutout to our tournament sponsors, Northern Insuring Agency, the Sun Community News, Wilson Appliance Centers, Norsk Titanium, Millers Mosquito Management, and Northline Utilities!
Tournament prizes were sponsored by Carol Arnold (1st place, $500), Due North Realty (2nd place, $400), The Card Shop (3rd place, $300), the Senior Citizens Council of Clinton County (4th place, $200), and Friends of the North Country (5th place, $100.)
WHY IT MATTERS
Fostering Komfort collaborates with Clinton County DSS to provide suitcases or duffle bags filled with age-appropriate toiletries like hair care, body wash, and deodorant, and comfort items like coloring books, blankets, and toys, to children transitioning into foster care.
The Backpack Program provides meals to local, food-insecure elementary school students so they have food over the weekends. Each bag contains food for two breakfasts, three entrees, a vegetable, grain, and snacks.
