It was 90 degrees in the shade, but that didn\u2019t stop the teams from swinging, sweating, and showing up in a big way at the Binnacle House Golf Outing on June 23rd. With the rolling greens of Stanton Ridge as the backdrop and 144 golfers out in full force, it was a day full of sun, smiles, and surprising generosity.<\/p>

And for Family Promise of Hunterdon County – it was a lifeline.<\/p>

We were honored (and a little humbled, to be honest) to be selected by the Binnacle House Foundation <\/strong>as one of the nonprofit beneficiaries of this year\u2019s outing. While the sun set on a day of friendly competition and generous hearts at Stanton Ridge, the real highlight came a few weeks later, on July 16th<\/sup>, when we presented with the $15,000 check from Binnacle House. Those funds will directly support our 90-day transitional housing program and our broader mission of helping families in crisis find stability and long-term solutions<\/strong>.<\/p>

\"We\u00a0<\/p>

Let\u2019s just say: it meant more than anyone there probably realized.<\/p>

\u00a0\u201cHole in One? Not quite. But this gift? A total win.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

Our team was lucky enough to join in the day – not just to witness the $10,000 Hole-in-One challenge (no winners this year, sadly!), but to meet the incredible folks who made the event possible. From sponsors to players to the amazing crew at Binnacle House, we were floored by the energy and heart everyone brought to the course.<\/p>

More than once, we were asked, \u201cSo what exactly does Family Promise do?\u201d<\/p>

Here\u2019s the short version: We serve families and individuals who are experiencing crisis – those facing housing insecurity, eviction, or displacement. Through our transitional housing program, case management, and wraparound services, we help them stabilize, heal, and rebuild.<\/p>

We walk alongside our guests – not just for a week, not just with a meal – but through the difficult and courageous work of regaining footing and finding permanent housing.<\/p>

More Than Just a Check<\/strong><\/p>

Here\u2019s the thing: $15,000 is a game-changer for us. Right now, our needs are real – and urgent. The cost of providing transitional housing, utilities, individualized support, and basic essentials adds up quickly.<\/p>

So when a group like Binnacle House steps in – not just to donate, but to include us in their story – it feels like more than a gift. It feels like solidarity.<\/p>
