CBS News 12 Morning Anchor, Matt Lincoln, and Golfing Great, Dana Quigley, Return
PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL. – Clinics Can Help (CCH), the West Palm Beach-based nonprofit helping to enable access to healthcare to all through the donation of medical equipment and supplies, is proud to share the new date for their seventh annual Clinics Can Help Golf Classic. The event, set for October 30, 2020 at Wellington National Golf Club, will welcome back returning honorary chair and professional golfer, Dana Quigley, alongside chair Matt Lincoln, CBS News 12 Morning Anchor, and the nine committee members already hard at work: Pam Swensen, Andrea McMillan, Despina Hall, Vic Carlucci, Sally Chester, Myk Nelsen, Jon Levy, and Gil and Jennifer Martinez, preparing for the organization’s annual tournament.
Golfer Dana Quigley was known as the “Iron Man of the Champions Tour” before his son, Devon, was paralyzed in a car accident in 2011. He took time off professionally after the accident to ensure Devon’s care was exactly what would help him thrive. Clinics Can Help was a big part of that equation. “Ensuring this type of medical equipment gets in the hands of children and families in their time of need has a tremendous effect on everyone involved. I was a proud recipient of equipment from Clinics Can Help for Devon years ago. It was truly lifechanging for him. I’m grateful for them being there in our time of need and I am honored to continue to support the work of Clinics Can Help as it impacts the lives of a growing number of local residents.”
Featuring a 1:00 p.m. shotgun start and fantastic prizes for Closest-to-the-Pin, Longest-Drive, and Hole-in-One, the day will offer something for everyone including an exciting silent auction and fabulous food.
Proceeds from the event will support the Clinics Can Help’s KINDER Project, providing CCH adaptive equipment to children with special needs at no cost. CCH’s KINDER Project has served over 650 children in our community with equipment including adaptive bathing systems, pediatric positioning seating systems, adaptive transit strollers and other items for children with special needs.
