e CARE Clinic presents its 25th
Annual CARE Clinic Golf Charity
ursday, Sept. 19, at Gates Four
Golf & Country Club at 11 a.m.
"e Care Clinic is a nonprofit. We
receive no government assistance,"
said Cynthia Deere, development
and marketing director of the Care
Clinic. "It takes about $44,000 a
month to keep our doors open, and
we receive funds from grants, pri-
vate donations, business donations
and sponsorships from our three
major fundraisers each year."
Deere added the CARE Clinic's
biggest expense every month is
pharmaceuticals because when
someone comes in for high choles-
terol, diabetes, sinus or a urinary
tract infection, they are given the
medication at the clinic at no cost.
"Last year was the first year that
we did the Texas Scramble, and it
was very well received because we
were doing something different,"
said Deere. "We have all of the con-
tests that we have had in the past,
such as Closest to the Pin, Hole-in-
One, a Luigi's Putting Contest and a
Par 3 Poker Challenge."
Deere added there will be a din-
ner and the awards will immediately
follow the tournament.
e CARE Clinic provides free
quality dental and medical health-
care, based on household income,
to eligible uninsured, low-income
adults who live in Cumberland
County and the surrounding areas.
Registration for the tournament
begins at 9:30 am. Each player will
get a Titleist player pack. e cost for
an individual to play is $300. A team
of four individuals is $1,000. Spon-
sorships are available for purchase.
