Clinics Can Help (CCH) hosted its 10th annual Golf Classic, presented by the Gil Martinez Agency – State Farm, on Oct. 27 at the Wanderers Club in Wellington. The sold-out tournament welcomed 100 golfers for a day of fun while raising more than $52,000 for the nonprofit organization dedicated to helping children and adults to achieve mobility, independence and dignity through access to medical equipment and supplies.
Returning in the role of chair was CBS 12’s morning anchor Matt Lincoln, while PGA Tour Champion Dana Quigley, whose personal experience after a tragic accident involving his son, brought him to Clinics Can Help, returned as honorary chair.
Taking home the first-place trophy after a tie was the Nicolas Group with Angel Nicolas, Jose Nicolas, Bobby Bradley and Andre Pumariega, and women’s team Cathy Mills, Shelley Young, Nancy Boulter and Maura Nolan. Second place went to Gil Martinez, Dennis Martinez, Kyle Kelley and Bobby Robbins from the Gil Martinez Agency for the men, and the women’s team of Linda Raybon. Mixed team winners were Suzanne Fitts, Clayton Varner, Lyn Kelly and Jim Clampton. Justin Powell took home men’s closest to the pin, with Sandra Hearn taking home the award for the women’s division. Andre Pumariega and Angie Quigley both won longest drive.
“We are so incredibly grateful to everyone who continues to support us year after year, and are excited about all of the new faces we had this year,” Clinics Can Help CEO Owen O’Neill said. “To see the growth of this tournament and the support it brings to our organization annually is something that is very special to me. This money is vital to helping families who desperately need customized equipment and expensive supplies that insurance does not cover.”
Proceeds from the event specifically support Clinics Can Help’s KINDER (Kids In Need of Durable Equipment Right now) Project, dedicated to supporting families of children with special needs. Many of the children are affected by serious medical conditions, and the families struggle to afford the equipment that enables them to lead more independent lives.
Sponsors of the 10th annual Clinics Can Help Golf Classic included: the Gil Martinez Agency – State Farm; the Nicolas Group; Rosenthal, Levy, Simon and Sosa, Attorneys at Law; Brian Marketing Group; Northwestern Mutual; and the Law Offices of Craig Goldenfarb.
