NVFS Annual Golf Tournament Combines Camaraderie, Charity

Oakton, Va., July 11, 2005—Community members and business leaders will come together for a memorable day of golf and camaraderie while giving something back to children and families at the 4th Annual Northern Virginia Family Service (NVFS) Golf Tournament on Oct. 7 at Stonewall Golf Club in Gainesville, Va.

“The annual golf tournament is about more than just golf. While much of the day will be spent on the course, this event is also an opportunity to meet fellow community leaders in Northern Virginia. Most importantly, however, it allows participants to support the children and families in our area who are in great need,” said NVFS President and CEO Mary Agee.

Tournament attendees will play a round of golf, participate in silent and live auctions and enjoy dinner at this prestigious club. Funds raised by tournament sponsorships will support the more than 30 programs that teach, empower and encourage families to improve their quality of life. Last year’s tournament raised more than $40,000. For more information on the tournament and sponsorships that are available, visit www.nvfs.org/golfsponsorform.htm.

Established in 1924, Northern Virginia Family Service is a private, non-profit community service resource dedicated to helping individuals and families find new paths to self-reliance and brighter futures. Each year, NVFS helps more than 27,000 people find affordable housing and health care for their children, earn a living wage and much more. For more information, visit www.nvfs.org.
