Local & national businesses support The Hume Cente for the Fifth Year

On June 11, 2012 The Hume Center will once again benefit from the Annual Golf Tournament hosted by the Greater Bay Franchise Owners Association of 7-Eleven (GBFOA). This will be the fifth straight year that GBFOA has chosen to support The Hume Center with this exciting event.

The Annual Golf Tournament is called "Golf for a Healthy Lifestyle" because the GBFOA Golf Committee wanted to reinforce that physical and social activities like golf can help improve physical and mental health. One aspect of the tournament that makes it so exciting to participate in as a player or as a guest at the dinner is the energy and generosity of the vendors that participate in the tournament as well. The vendors, who represent the majority of the companies that sell products in 7-Eleven stores and those companies that provide support and business tools to each stores, generally bring a great variety of their products to sample and enjoy.

Another exciting aspect of the tournament is that the money raised for The Hume Center supports its Training Department. This support has enabled us to expand the number of doctoral-level trainees we supervise each year. Our thirteen licensed psychologists are now able to train over forty trainees each year, which allows us to directly serve over fifteen hundred people annually. The direct impact of your support is multiplied exponentially, as each trainee will take the passion for community mental health and the prevention of psychology suffering that they learn here with them into their careers.

So join us for the tournament, either as a golf tournament player or as a guest at the dinner. Please click on the link below to learn more about the tournament and to register to attend.
