Event Background
|
|
In 2001, The Pawtuckaway Open was transformed into a charity event benefiting
Families in Transition, a non-profit agency that provides safe, affordable transitional housing to homeless women with or without children.
Participants also receive comprehensive supportive services, including support groups, workshops and
computer/employment training.
Ninety percent of FIT participants complete the program and achieve economic and emotional sufficiency, enabling them to live independent and healthy lives. It is this amazing success rate that led the event sponsors to choose FIT-NH as the benefiting organization. |
Total Fundraising
| The event raises money through greens fees and chili fees. Additional contributions are typically made by individual attendees and in 2003 we introduced hole sponsorships. All proceeds go directly to Families in Transition; the event sponsors cover fees such as food, paper goods, and prizes. |
