Since 2019, CCACC Health Center has organized an annual charity golf tournament every June to raise funds to support its medical services, providing one-stop care for low-income and uninsured individuals in Montgomery County to ensure they and their families receive quality medical care, to further expand its high-quality services.
As people's medical needs continue to grow, CCACC Health Center hosted the fifth annual charity golf tournament on Monday, June 17, 2024, at Richland Golf Club, seizing the opportunity to raise funds to benefit the community.
A total of 14 teams participated in this year's charity golf tournament. All participants engaged in a four-and-a-half-hour long competition in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. Meanwhile, in the lounge next to the course, some CCACC staff and volunteers were methodically setting up the venue for the afternoon's award ceremony.
