Clearview HOPE Receives $2,500 Donation

The Northern Ohio PGA Section Foundation hosted its Inaugural Smucker’s Pro 3 Am on July 5, 2018 at Firestone Country Club (North Course) to benefit the Northern Ohio PGA Section Foundation and Clearview HOPE. Due to the generosity of the Title Sponsor, Smucker’s, and the 128 participants who supported the event, as well as, the silent and live auctions; the Northern Ohio PGA Section Foundation was able to donate $2,500 to Dr. Renee Powell, PGA and Clearview HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere). The event would not have been possible without the support of many, but especially our other sponsors, First National Bank and Oakley. Special thanks to Firestone Country Club for hosting the very special event.
