The Health First Foundation hosted its annual Health First Golf Classic at Suntree Country Club on Monday, April 29. This year, the event raised $225,000. The money raised will directly benefit the Health First Aging Services, which is dedicated to providing high-quality health care for seniors and support for their caregivers.
A shotgun start alerted more than 236 golfers to tee off and yet again, ace another successful tournament.
Since 2004, the tournament has raised $2.1 million, thanks to many kind and generous donors who continue to support Health First's wellness and health services.
