Silent Auction Items and Event Sponsorships Needed

We are holding our 11^th Holes for Hope charity golf outing June 23, at White Eagle Golf Club. This event benefits St. Thomas Cares.

One of the highlights of the golf outing is the silent auction. You may not be a golfer, but you can help with the golf outing by providing a silent auction item. Two suggestions for providing an auction item: 1) purchase the item yourself, or 2) ask businesses you frequent on a regular basis for a donation (e.g., beauty salon, restaurant, where your car is serviced, etc.). If you have any questions, contact Peggy Goralski at pgoralski@stapostle.org or 630.355.8980, x123.

Another way that you can help is by being an event sponsor. Sponsorship opportunities are outlined here. Businesses, families and individuals can be event sponsors.

In 2024, St. Thomas Cares distributed $46,665 in assistance to 289 individuals or families. The Holes for Hope Golf Outing allows us to be able to continue to help those in need. It is a fun event for golfers and for those who choose the dinner only option. Please save the date on your calendars.

Holes for Hope, our charity golf outing benefiting St. Thomas Cares, needs your help. Consider volunteering in any of the following ways:

Be a part of the Holes for Hope planning committee.
Consider sponsoring the event in some way (go to stapostle-golf.org for details).
Donate a live or silent auction item.
Volunteer to organize the auction item donations into gift baskets and packages.
Coordinate the Wall of Wine raffle.
Donate a bottle of wine.
Volunteer to help ahead of time, the weekend before or the day of the outing.
Sign up to golf.

Holes for Hope will take place June 23 at White Eagle Golf Club. The golfing, the dinner, and the live and silent auctions make for such a fun event for a good cause.
