“Operation Hope has been working to end chronic homelessness in the community for over 30 years, and as the shelter evolves into a homeless response center focused on outreach and crisis resolution, now, more than ever, we rely on the community’s support,” says Golf Outing Co-Chair, Tim Clark. Golf Outing Co-Chair Ab Igram continues, “The annual Golf Outing is a way for players to take on the challenge of a legendary course, enjoy themselves and raise money to carry on Operation Hope’s mission to end hunger and homelessness for our neighbors in need.”

“The Golf Outing is one of our signature events to support Operation Hope’s clients, and we are grateful for the generous businesses and residents who make it successful,” states Carla Miklos, Executive Director, Operation Hope. “It is with the proceeds from our events and donations alike that Operation Hope can provide food, clinical support, affordable housing and hope for the future for so many. Together, we will continue helping people build sustainable lives.”
