“When the CEO of The National Bank of Sussex County, soon to be Lakeland Bank, approached us almost forty years ago with an idea to introduce a golf outing to benefit our Hospice Agency, we were ecstatic. We are fortunate to be associated with Lakeland Bank, allowing us to fulfill our mission of providing the highest quality end-of-life care to patients and families regardless of their ability to pay. It's wonderful that Lakeland Bank supports a variety of local not-for-profits helping so many in our community.”
- Julia Quinlan, Karen Ann Quinlan Hospice Co-Founder
“The SCARC Foundation is extremely grateful for our 20+ year relationship with Lakeland Charities through the Ray Cordts Memorial Sussex County Golf Classic. The funds donated from the golf classic have enabled SCARC to provide our programs and services to children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities throughout Sussex County.”
- Chris Hemmer, SCARC Chief Development Officer

Thanks to their generosity, we can continue our mission of promoting health, hope, and recovery in our community.

It's inspiring to see the diverse range of non-profits supported by this event, and we're honored to be among them. Together, we can create a community where everyone thrives."
