The Geary Community Healthcare Foundation will be busy over the next several months as they prepare for two of their larger fundraising events for Geary Community Hospital.

Coming up in September is the annual Fall Classic golf tournament at Rolling Meadows Golf Course. Funds from the popular golf tournament will be given to the Hospital to continue to support its operations.

Following the Fall Classic on September 11th the annual Glitz fundraiser will be held December 12th. This years Glitz will be a celebration of its 25 year history and will take a look back on those years, according to Jolana Montgomery-Matney, Executive Director of the Healthcare Foundation.

“We’re going to celebrate the 25 years, the different events, where they were, the centerpieces, just kind of reflect back on where they started with raising maybe $3,000 and now were sometimes in the $50,000,” said Montgomery-Matney.

The money raised goes back to benefit GCH. Montgomery-Matney did say that she believes they have identified some needs they would like to put the money towards, from both the Fall Classic and Glitz, but they are not ready to release that at this point.

Save the date cards for the Glitz will be going out in August and invitations will be mailed in November.
