The 16th Annual Charity Golf Tournament to benefit NVNA and Hospice set for July 21st

Corporate sponsors, golfers and silent auction items sought

 NVNA and Hospice, the only independent nonprofit home healthcare agency serving Boston’s South Shore, has announced its 16th Annual Charity Golf Tournament will be held on Monday July 21st at the Indian Pond Country Club in Kingston.

The Golf Tournament is the agency’s largest fundraising event, with proceeds used to underwrite numerous educational programs and community services and the cost of free and low cost care it provides to the 27 communities it serves from Milton to Plymouth. It will also help to fund end-of-life care and support to patients and their families served by the new Pat Roche Hospice Home in Hingham.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. A dinner, auction, and a 50/50 raffle will follow the golf tournament. A 2014 Cadillac will be stationed a hole #17 and a 2014 Dodge Ram truck will be at hole #5 waiting for a lucky golfer to ace a hole in one. New this year for the longest drive is an air cannon shoot-out for a chance to win a trip to Pete Dye Golf Lodge, at Casa De Campo in the Dominican Republic. For complete information, please call 781-659-2342 or visit www.nvna.org.

The NVNA and Hospice is grateful for the many corporate sponsors who have already lent their support including; South Shore Bank, F.P. Giglio Properties, Roche Bros., The Colonnade Hotel, Quincy Mutual Group, Stevenson, McKenna and Callanan, and the Fahey/O’Brien Group at Merrill Lynch.
