Golf Outing History

The Swingin' Fore Theresa Golf Outing & Gala Reception is an annual fundraising event organized by the Theresa Foundation, dedicated to enhancing the lives of children with special needs.  

Since 1997, the event has been pivotal in supporting programs in art, music, dance, drama, and recreation, providing these children with enriching and transformative experiences. 

Celebrating its 28th anniversary on June 2nd, 2025, at the Hempstead Golf & Country Club in Hempstead, New York, the outing has grown into a cherished tradition for both participants and supporters.

The golf outing is designed to be inclusive and welcoming, inviting avid golfers, novices, and even those who don't play golf to join in the festivities. Attendees can participate in the golf outing and enjoy the gala reception, making it accessible to a wide range of supporters. 

Over the years, the Swingin' Fore Theresa Golf Outing & Gala Reception has emerged as a shining example of community spirit and generosity, with funds raised significantly impacting the lives of children with special needs locally and nationwide.
