The 6th Annual Kevin T. English Memorial Golf Tournament raised over $8,000 for Project Mend-A-House.
Over 75 golfers braved the morning drizzle on May 1st what turned into a beautiful afternoon of golfing at Montclair County club. The day concluded with a BBQ dinner featuring quadriplegic PMAH client, Ms. Parker, who shared her story and how PMAH helped improve her independence by providing home repairs, a new HVAC system (through the generosity of TWIN Air and Lennox Parts Plus) and a ramp so she can leave her home more easily,
Jennifer Schock-Bolles, PMAH Executive Director, summed up the event saying, “It is an honor to be able to celebrate the life of Kevin English while raising funds to support the organization he loved. The funds raised at the tournament are critically needed for our mission of helping Prince William’s most vulnerable residents continue to live safely and independently in their homes.”
Rich Beamer, Tournament Chair, commented, “…this was our biggest year ever in both the number of participants and funds raised. We are so grateful to everyone who played, sponsored and volunteered this year. This was our best year ever for sponsors supporting the event, with special thanks to our friends with Belvoir Federal Credit Union and the Woodbridge Rotary Club, as they made it possible for us to host Wounded Warriors from the Army and Marine Corps as our guests for the day.” Miller Toyota in Manassas also provided a large sponsorship. Major contributions from Gar-Field Grad Events, NOVEC HELPS, Master-Print and Sign-A-Rama Woodbridge helped make the event a success. Hole sponsors included Bean & Mallow, Land Design Consultants, Ferlazzo Real Estate Team, Ed and Mitzi Roman, and PMAH board members Barbara Reese and Linda Leiker.”
The proceeds of the tournament will be used to purchase building materials, ramps, grab bars and other materials used in Project Mend-A-House (PMAH) home repair, safety and accessibility projects.
