All proceeds from this event benefit the Medford Education Foundation, an independent, non-profit 501 c(3) corporation, comprised of parents, business owners, and educators who work to raise money in support of the Medford Township Public Schools. Since 2004, the Medford Education Foundation has raised nearly $600,000.00 for the benefit of the Medford Township public schools for things such as mobile laptop laboratories, technology upgrades, and the purchase of independent reading books. Funds raised by the Medford Education Foundation are also used for the Foundation’s Education Grant Program which supports teachers and encourages creativity in the classroom for the benefit of Medford’s K-8 students. Foundation grants provide resources for extraordinary educational experiences such as hands-on classroom projects, field trips, art, music and drama programs, enhanced STEM education, guest speakers, assemblies and access to technology.
Golfers will receive registration gifts, lunch, golf, use of a golf cart and the club facilities, cocktails, and dinner. Non-golfers are welcome as well and anyone who wants to support the Medford Education Foundation may purchase a ticket for cocktails and dinner. An array of sponsorship and advertising opportunities are also available. Registration and sponsorship information is available on the Medford Education Foundation website at: MedfordEducationFoundation.org or by calling Golf Outing Co-Chair, Chad Fires at (609) 654–6416.
