Thank you to all our sponsors and golfers who supported our Fall Golf Classic at TPC Jasna Polana.

Princeton, NJ – On Monday, October 7th, 2019, Community Options, Inc hosted its annual iMatter Golf Classic in support of people with disabilities. For the second consecutive year, the golf tournament was held at the TPC Jasna Polana in Princeton, New Jersey.

Over ninety golfers participated in the tournament, which began with a shotgun start at 11:30am. After eighteen holes, the golfers returned for a reception and dinner where they had the opportunity to meet with executives and board members from Community Options. The evening included awards, a silent auction, and a live auction presented by iMatter Fall Golf Classic Chair Philip Lian, who also serves as Chairman for Community Options Enterprises. In total, Community Options raised over $100,000 to support people with disabilities.

“It was wonderful to see our guests having a great time golfing and even more wonderful to see their enthusiasm for supporting people with disabilities,” said Brian Dion, Chief Development Officer for Community Options. “The event was a huge success and we are looking forward to next year’s outing which will take place once again at Jasna Polana on June 1st. We are thankful for our event chairman, Phil Lian and his continued support that makes events like this possible.”
