What better time than Thanksgiving to extend our appreciation to a very special group of Operation Hope of Fairfield friends – our golfers!
On Monday, October 6, a group of enthusiastic supporters of Operation Hope gathered together on a gorgeous fall day at the stunning Country Club of Fairfield for Operation Hope’s SOLD OUT Annual Golf Outing to tee off to end hunger and end homelessness in our community. With your support, we can continue to help provide clinical support, housing affordability, food and hope for the future for those experiencing hunger and homelessness today.

GRATITUDE ON THE GREENS
Everyone who made our Golf Outing possible knocked it out of the park, or course, this year! Thank you for pulling together to make the event a success: Golf Outing Chair and Board Member Peter DiDimenico; Board Treasurer and Country Club of Fairfield sponsor Tim Clark; Country Club of Fairfield staff; Operation Hope staff, Board Members and volunteers; and Mike Lauterborn/Fairfield HamletHub for photos. A very special thanks to Board Member Sharon Risley and Events Manager Suzanne Francis for sharing their time and talents with us. And also, thanks to our generous raffle prize donors!
The event promised a day “filled with fundraising, fun and great golf” – and it delivered on all of that, and more. Visit the Facebook post here to see the photos from the day (courtesy of Fairfield HamletHub).
We are grateful to you as we rely on your support now, more than ever. The demand for food and services continues to increase tremendously. We are filling the needs of our regular individuals and families, elderly, disabled, as well as the unemployed, right here in our own town. You are giving a vulnerable population the opportunity for positive and lasting change – and directly breaking the cycle of homelessness.
We wish you a happy Thanksgiving with your loved ones. We look forward to seeing you at next year’s Golf Outing!
