Jewelers on the Fairway marks 14th year of giving back

(NEW YORK) – 2022 will mark the 14th year of the Jewelers on the Fairway charity golf outing, which will be held at Manhattan Woods Golf Club in West Nyack, NY. Over the last 14 years, golfers from across the industry have joined to support Hope & Heroes, and other charity organizations, with special focuses each year. Organized by Larry Gordon of LG Diamond Co/Shreeji Jewelry, Samir Mehta of Indigo Jewelry, and Steven Lerche of Goldstar Jewellery, the event has raised over $500,000 since its inception.

Hope & Heroes funds the life-saving work on childhood cancer and blood disorders at Columbia University Irving Medical Center – including cutting-edge research, support for families, and care that always puts children first.

Over the last few weeks the group has seen the devastation and destruction brought to Ukraine and the humanitarian crisis that has resulted. This year they are teaming up with the CARE Organization’s Ukrainian Crisis Fund, which aims to provide support to over 4 million in need.

Jewelers on the Fairway will donate to the CARE Organization that helps with immediate aid and recovery, food, water, hygiene kits, psychosocial support, cash assistance and first aid deliveries for Ukrainian refugees. The Organization prioritizes women, girls, children, and the elderly, and provides funding for refugees being cared for at the borders to neighboring countries such as Poland, Slovakia, or Romania

The event will take place on Wednesday, July 27, 2022. The day of camaraderie and giving back will start with check-in at 10:30 am, brunch and warm up at 11 am, ‘shotgun start’ at noon, followed by cocktails, dinner, and awards at 5 pm.

Single player participation for new participants starts at $1,000 and goes up to a variety of player package and non-player package sponsorships that provide numerous levels of awareness, signage, and recognition at the event and on the website. All proceeds will benefit charity.

For information on participation at the event and/or the various sponsorships, please contact Steven Lerche by email at steven@goldstarjewellery.com.
