24th Annual Maria Joseph Golf Tournament
A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Sponsors, Donors, Golfers, and Volunteers
Although Mother Nature had other plans for our 24th Annual Maria Joseph Golf Tournament, the generosity and kindness of our supporters made this year’s fundraising efforts truly meaningful.
Unfortunately, due to inclement weather, we had to make the difficult decision to cancel this year’s tournament. Despite this disappointment, we are incredibly grateful to our corporate sponsors, donors, and golfers who generously allowed us to retain their sponsorship contributions and registration fees. Your understanding, kindness, and continued support helped us raise valuable funds to benefit the residents of Maria Joseph.
We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to our dedicated volunteers and everyone who worked so hard preparing for this special event. While we were unable to enjoy a day together on the golf course, your efforts and generosity did not go unnoticed.
Your continued support makes a meaningful difference in the lives of our residents and helps us provide the professional, compassionate, and person-centered care they deserve.
A Special Acknowledgment to Our Sponsors and Donors
This year’s fundraising initiative focused on a very special project:
“Help Us Build a Kitchen, Where Every Meal Awakens a Memory.”
At Nazareth Memory Center, residents living with dementia receive care in a safe, faith-filled environment where dignity, comfort, and meaningful connections are at the heart of everyday life.
Our goal is to install a fully functioning kitchen that will create a warm, welcoming, and homelike environment for our residents. This kitchen will provide opportunities to participate in familiar household activities, enjoy sensory experiences, take part in baking and cooking activities, and share special moments with family and friends.
For individuals living with dementia, the familiar sights, sounds, and aromas of a kitchen can bring comfort, encourage engagement, and help rekindle cherished memories.
The total cost of this important project is $163,300, and every contribution brings us one step closer to making this vision a reality.
Although the weather prevented us from holding this year’s tournament, the generosity of our sponsors, donors, and golfers has allowed us to make meaningful progress toward this goal. We are deeply thankful to everyone who chose to continue supporting our mission despite the cancellation.
Your generosity is about so much more than a donation. It is about creating moments of joy, comfort, connection, and dignity for the residents we are privileged to serve.
From all of us at Maria Joseph, THANK YOU for your kindness, understanding, and unwavering support. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the golf course next year!
