PARSIPPANY — The Sons of Italy Lodge 2561 held its annual Golf Outing on July 9 at the Knoll West Country Club.
The event was very successful and well attended with over 125 golfers and even a larger draw for dinner.
All of the money raised will be donated to needy organizations. Just recently, the club donated $1,500 to the Parsippany food Pantry. Parsippany-Troy Hills Acting Director Human Services Michele Picone was given the check by Sons of Italy President Joseph Jannarone.
The club will be donating to different organizations in the coming months.
The club has been a great supporter of The Valerie Fund which was established in 1976 by Ed and Sue Goldstein in memory of their daughter Valerie after her battle with cancer. According to the fund’s website, the organization provides “support for the comprehensive health care of children with cancer and blood disorders.” The club donates to support the walking team, “Bella’s Bunch,” named after two-time cancer survivor, Bella Rocco.
