Tee off and raise money for the needy
on Long Island this spring
The Long Island Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SVDPLI) will host its 10th Annual Golf Classic at the Tam O’ Shanter Club in Brookville on Monday May 13. This year’s honoree, Thomas S. Gulotta, former Nassau County Executive, will join attendees in celebrating the good work of this organization.
Last year, SVDPLI helped 234,572 people with over $8.3 million in financial and material support. Their mission is to help people overcome times of hardship and they accomplish this by visiting the homes of those in need and providing services in the comfort and privacy of the client’s home. The type of assistance provided varies and is based on the needs of each family.
