Community Support

In 2021, we raised $40,000 to aid the

PHCC of MA Scholarship Fund, Hugs for Mito, Tommy's Place, a dream vacation home for children fighting cancer, where they can relax and have fun, and Dignity Matters, which supplies feminine products to women in need. 

In 2020, $30,000 was raised to help Hugs for Mito, The Play Brigade, who work to create opportunities for inclusive play, recreation, and sports where everyone can participate and belong, regardless of age or ability, and the PHCC of MA Scholarship Fund.

In 2019. $39,000 was split evenly between Hugs for Mito, an organization dedicated to helping those fighting mitochondrial disease, Women's Lunch Place, and Embrace A Family, which helps Natick families that are challenged with cancer diagnoses.

In 2018, we raised $35,000 for the newly created PHCC of MA Scholarship Fund providing education for the next generation of PHCC contractors

In 2017, $34,000 in tournament proceeds were donated to Women’s Lunch Place.  This local organization provides meals and critical support services for women experiencing homelessness and poverty.  Members of the PHCC of MA Golf Committee presented the check.

In 2016, the golf tournament proceeds were donated to Rosie's Place, which was founded in 1974 as the first women’s shelter in the United States. Their mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment that helps poor and homeless women maintain their dignity, seek opportunity and find security in their lives.

In 2015 we raised $32,000 for Lovelane Special Needs Horseback Riding.  Based in Lincoln, MA this non-profit provides a unique service to children with disabilities in a fun, supportive environment designed to achieve occupational, physical, speech, cognitive and other therapeutic gains.
