Garden City, N.Y. (May 6, 2022) – FCA, a leading health and human services nonprofit organization on Long Island, is no stranger to making lemonade out of lemons. And that’s just what happened earlier this week when rain showers and wind were unwelcome guests at FCA’s annual golf outing at the Meadow Brook Club in Jericho. Despite the challenges the weather presented, the outing was otherwise a great success, with a stalwart cadre of more than 120 supporters who together raised close to $160,000. The monies raised will support dozens of programs that protect and benefit vulnerable Long Islanders of all ages.
FCA President and CEO Dr. Jeffrey L. Reynolds expressed his thanks to all who turned out to support FCA, saying “The weather didn’t break our way, but we were thrilled to have a record field of golfers who braved the wind and rain to help our less fortunate neighbors experience brighter days.”
