Jefferson County Health Department (JCHD) recently received a monetary donation of $7,150 from the Jefferson County Rotary Clubs, Inc. Benefit Golf Tournament. Jefferson County Rotary Clubs, Inc. held a benefit golf tournament on October 13th at Crystal Highlands Golf Course in Festus, MO. The event attracted 120 golfers and 39 sponsors, raising a total of $14,300. This was the 5th annual benefit golf tournament hosted by the Jefferson County Rotary Clubs and the fifth year they chose JCHD’s Mobile Wellness Program as one of the recipients of the proceeds from the tournament.
Donated funds go directly into the JCHD Mobile Wellness program, which provides healthcare services for Jefferson County residents who need it most. “We are grateful for the continued generosity of the Jefferson County Rotary Clubs,” states Jefferson County Health Department Executive Director Kelley Vollmar. “It’s rewarding to see such great community participation in support of a program that, in turn, provides vital health services to their friends and neighbors who may be struggling with access to care.”
“As in past years, we want to thank all the players, sponsors, and volunteers for participating in the 5 th Jefferson County Rotary Clubs Benefit Golf Tournament,” states Hillsboro Rotary Club President Doug Wright. “This year’s tournament was our most successful so far. It’s wonderful to see contributions will continue to have a powerful impact within our Jefferson County community.”
