Jersey City Medical Center's 28th Annual Golf Classic Raises Record-Breaking $402,865

JERSEY CITY, NJ – Jersey City Medical Center, an RWJBarnabas Health hospital raised a record-breaking total of $402,865 from its 28th Annual Golf Classic. The sold-out event, held on Monday, October 6, at the Liberty National Golf Course in Jersey City, brought together hospital employees, business leaders, community members, and friends to support the Medical Center’s key programs and services.

This year's event generated unprecedented support, with all proceeds dedicated to furthering the hospital’s mission of building and sustaining a healthier New Jersey. A portion of the funds raised will directly facilitate the purchase of vouchers from Shop Rite for 1,250 families in need throughout Jersey City to purchase a meal for the Thanksgiving holiday.

“The incredible generosity of our sponsors, attendees, and community partners has made this our most successful Golf Classic to date,” said Madeline Warshauer, Foundation Director. “These record-breaking results will have a direct and significant impact on our community, especially during the holiday season, and we are grateful to everyone who contributed to this outstanding achievement.”

The classic was concluded by a celebratory dinner reception which included the presentation of awards to the event’s top finishers.
