Needy children in the Gainesville area will benefit from the fourth Jeffrey Gay Memorial Golf Classic to be held in Clarkesville May 14.
The event will raise funds for the Medical Association of Georgia Foundation and the We Care Foundation.
“These funds will support our ‘Think About It’ campaign to reduce prescription drug abuse,” says Jack M. Chapman Jr., M.D., the president of the MAG Foundation. “The funds will also be used to expand ‘Project DAN’ to provide first responders with naloxone, which reverses the effects of drug overdoses – and which has already been credited with saving several lives in northeast Georgia.”
The golf tournament will begin with a shotgun start at 12 p.m. The $75 entry fee covers greens fees and a cart and dinner from Johnny’s BBQ. Sponsorships are also available. Contact Hilda Shockley at 770.536.3922 with questions or to register.
The golf tournament is a memorial tribute to Jeffrey Gay – the grandson of the MAG Foundation ‘Think About It’ campaign Community Co-chair Dallas Gay – who lost his life to prescription drug abuse in 2012.
