The Golf Outing was started back in 2009, just after Friends In Deed purchased its new facility at 1196 Ecorse Road. The hope was that the Golf Outing would speed up payment on the building’s mortgage. As it turned out, the event really helped; the mortgage was paid off in its entirety in March of 2011.
Continued Support
The Golf Outing was such a success that the group of dedicated golfers behind its creation decided to keep it going. These days, the funds raised from the Golf Outing are used toward Friends In Deed’s operating expenses. In other words, the funds help Friends In Deed keep the lights on, the staff paid and the doors open to the many members of our community who need our assistance.
