Golf Classic to Benefit Needy Families

Tracy, CA – Since 1991, Surtec Adopt-A-Family, Inc., a 501C3 non-profit charitable organization, has provided food and personally selected Christmas gifts to more than 4,570 families with 13,125 children through its program.

Adopt-A-Family founder Bill Fields commented “This project has continued to grow each year with volunteer help and funds raised from our Annual Golf Classic. Our goal for the 2010 program is to provide food for 350 families and gifts for their more than 950 children, in three counties”.

Fields is inviting residents and companies in the community to participate in the 14th Annual Adopt-A-Family Golf Classic on Saturday, September 25, at Sunol Golf Course on Highway 680 in Sunol.  A light lunch mid-day, and a dinner banquet following the tournament are included in the cost.  This event is the primary source of funding for the Surtec Adopt-A-Family program.

The average cost to complete the Adopt-A-Family Program each year is approximately $70,000. No administrative costs are taken from the program, all of the help is on a volunteer basis and all funds and goods go directly to the needy families.

Two years ago the program was expanded to also include the Thanksgiving holiday, by providing a large box of food and a grocers gift certificate, for the meat of their choice, to over 320 families with children, for the Thanksgiving holiday.

To donate or sign-up for the Golf Classic or for more information, please contact Cheryl Sanders at 209-820-3700.
