CFS’ 2026 Spring Golf Fundraiser: Creating Possibilities. Inspiring Lives.
Special Guest: Howard Johnson!
Mets All-Star and World Champion “HoJo” was a special part of this year’s fundraiser at Ardsley Country Club, offering our guests a unique opportunity to connect with a true New York sports legend!
Thank you to everyone who made the Center for Family Support’s 2026 Spring Golf Fundraiser “A Day for Creating Opportunities” another tremendous success!
We are deeply grateful to everyone who joined us for such a beautiful and inspiring day at the prestigious Ardsley Country Club.
With more than 95 supporters, sponsors, partners, board members, staff, participants, and friends in attendance, this year’s fundraiser brought our community together for a day filled with connection, generosity, laughter, and purpose. Thanks to your extraordinary support, we not only reached our fundraising goal – we exceeded it.
Funds raised through this annual fundraiser help sustain and expand CFS programs that offer the opportunities and support needed to ensure meaningful and independent living for more than 1,000 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families across New York and New Jersey.
From housing and employment supports to advocacy initiatives, assistive technologies, and integrated community programs, the funds raised on this special day help ensure CFS can continue responding to the evolving needs of our community.
A very special thank you goes to former Mets All-Star and World Champion Howard “HoJo” Johnson for helping make this year’s event unforgettable as we also celebrated the 40th anniversary of the Mets’ 1986 World Series win. From photos and autographs to the sold-out “9 Holes with HoJo” experiences and signed jersey auction, HoJo brought incredible energy and excitement to the day.
We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors, donors, golfers, volunteers, staff, and partners whose generosity and enthusiasm made this event possible.
Your commitment to the CFS mission helps create pathways to opportunity, independence, and meaningful lives for the individuals and families we serve.
Most importantly, thank you to the extraordinary CFS community for continuing to show up for one another with optimism, compassion, and heart. We are already looking forward to seeing everyone back on the greens next year!
