Third Annual BHCG Golf Outing Raises Spirits and More Than $30,000 for Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers During Time of Critical Need
MILWAUKEE – September 16, 2020 – The Business Health Care Group (BHCG), a coalition of employers
primarily located throughout eastern Wisconsin, held its third annual golf outing, On Course for the Clinic, at Ironwood Golf Course in Sussex, Wisconsin on August 20. One hundred golfers enjoyed a great day on the course which raised more than $30,000 to benefit Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers, a Milwaukee area-based Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and vital part of the health care system that fills a significant gap in access to primary health care in the community.
“Our third golf outing was our most successful yet. Golfers were enthused about spending time with colleagues and friends in a safe golfing environment in this stressful time of COVID-19. Our sponsors and attendees were also particularly motivated to have an opportunity to raise money for our critical frontline health care workers who do so much in our community during this challenging period,” said BHCG Executive Director Jeff Kluever.
Sixteenth Street President and CEO, Dr. Julie Schuller, remarked, “The Business Health Care Group is a great advocate and committed partner of Sixteenth Street. All three of its golf outings to date have supported our work and the health and wellness of our patients. Now more than ever, the generous proceeds provided by the 2020 BHCG golf outing are needed to serve the most vulnerable in our community.”
Premier sponsors of the outing included BHCG’s best in class strategic partners, Gold Sponsor Quantum Health and Silver Sponsor Navitus Health Solutions, as well as Silver Sponsor Greater Milwaukee Business Foundation on Health, Inc.
