We are happy to announce that it is time for our 15th Annual Golf Tournament. This year’s tournament will be held on Halloween, as a Ghost Tournament! This allows all participants the opportunity to contribute to the Pamela Wilder Scholarship Fund as they have in the fourteen previous years, while reducing the stress of taking time away from work and family during these global unknown and uncertain times. In addition, this type of tournament will maximize the amount of scholarship funds and resources we can direct towards our patients’ recovery. Although there will be no live tournament, you are encouraged to participate for the chance to win fabulous prizes and of course, give women with addictions a gift she and her family will cherish – a gift of recovery!
This year, New Directions for Women has seen a significant reduction in the level of treatment costs individual patients can afford, and the level of reimbursement from insurance policies. With jobs lost, and credit very tight, families who seek treatment for their loved ones have fewer options available to pay for treatment. It’s affecting all of us. We need to raise $500,000 for the Pamela Wilder scholarship fund every year, or we may have to eliminate treatment for women whose very lives are at risk. Cuts to these programs would put more lives of women at risk, and have a devastating impact on their families, our community, and our nation. Your participation will help us continue to transform women, families, and their children, one day at a time.
Please visit our Ghost Golf Tournament page to learn more. Prize winners will be notified in mid-November. Don’t hesitate to call our Events Coordinator, Tania Bhattacharyya, at (949) 313-1192, with any questions. We look forward to our continued relationship into the future, as we are blessed by your generosity and support!
