JACKSON, N.J. - May 11, 2022 - PRLog -- r HOPE Sheds Light, a family-focused, non-profit organization, recently hosted its 2^nd Annual Golf Outing at Pine Barrens Golf Club in Jackson.  The sold-out event was sponsored in part by Ralph Clayton & Sons and Manasquan Bank.

"The day was a huge success," said Pamela Capaci, CEO of HOPE Sheds Light. "We would like to thank all of our volunteers, sponsors, board members and golfers for helping us spread the hope of recovery to the community."

With over 136 golfers in attendance, the outing opened with registration and lunch, followed by a Shotgun Start/Scramble Format. Dinner and awards followed the outing. The event also featured a putting contest, longest drive contest, beat the pro contest and closest to the pin contest. All proceeds benefited the mission of HOPE Sheds Light.

Founded in 2012 after co-founder Ron Rosetto lost his son Marc to a battle against substance abuse, HOPE Sheds Light acts as a voice of hope in a community in desperate need of knowing that recovery is possible. Along with Co-founders Arvo Prima and Stephen Willis, and a team of board members and volunteers, HSL aims to shed light into the shadows of stigma and fear.

"We believe that putting a familiar face to addiction through the sharing of our stories, we are sending a new message… one that hope carries to you and your family, which says: 'You are not alone, and people can and do recover'," said Capaci. "We are passionate about helping anyone in need, and we have created this organization to provide those individuals with the resources they need to find hope for a future free from substance use disorder."
