Dear friends,                               

This fall is my 30th year to fundraise for the Brookwood Community Golf Benefit.  I am honored to help with this event because I believe in Brookwood. Over the past 30 plus years, I have seen it grow from 12 full time residents to 112 plus 122 day program participants. Brookwood gives these men and women with special needs a place to call home, and the money raised from this Benefit provides them with the opportunity to learn and work, to experience social and spiritual fellowship every day, and to lead fulfilled and productive lives. 

Since 1984, Brookwood has significantly impacted the lives of hundreds of adults with disabilities, like my friends and Citizen Celebrities for my team, Angie and Gayle. Angie recently celebrated her 7^th anniversary at Brookwood, and Gayle has been a proud Citizen for over 30 years! Both ladies live on campus and work in Ceramics, helping to create wonderful products like Christmas ornaments and decorative bowls.

I hope you will join with me to reach my fundraising goal by making a tax-deductible contribution. Rest assured that more than 97 cents of every dollar goes directly into programs and services such as scholarships, staff salaries, and enterprises that transform the lives of Citizens like Angie and Gayle.

Thank you in advance for your support of my fundraising team and Brookwood.

Kind regards,

Scotty Thompson
