Proceeds help make it possible for more than 100 nonprofit organizations and civic groups to use our community spaces at no cost each year. From the Girl Scouts and Cancer Support Community to the Boston Police Department and many others, these groups rely on PSF Community Center for meetings, youth programs, support services, art therapy, and community-building activities.
In a neighborhood where many nonprofits have been displaced by rising rents and development pressures, PSF Community Center remains a vital resource and gathering place for the community.
A huge thank you to our generous donors who have already stepped up to support this year’s tournament! 👉 Swipe to see our donors so far.
Whether you’d like to participate as a sponsor, donor, golfer, or all three, there’s still time to get involved. Join us for a great day on the course while helping sustain programs and services that make a difference throughout our community.
