Mark your calendars for North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center’s 21st annual Jonathan Krevat Memorial Golf & Tennis Classic to be held on Monday, June 19, at The Creek in Locust Valley. This year’s honoree will be Dan Donnelly, chief executive officer, Donnelly Mechanical Corporation, longtime supporter of the Guidance Center and Garden City resident.
In the great tradition of the Davis Cup and the Ryder Cup, the new Krevat Cup will be the coveted prize. This outing will offer an amazing day of good-spirited competition in golf and tennis while raising much needed funds for the Guidance Center.
Mike Mondiello, Manhasset resident, board member and co-chair of the golf committee for North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center, will serve as captain of the Manhasset team, and he’s calling on all golf and tennis aficionados to join his team. The friendly competition will also include the other three captains: Garden City team captain Dan Donnelly, NYC captain Troy Slade and East Coast team captain Michael Schnepper.
North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center is the preeminent nonprofit, children’s mental health agency on Long Island, dedicated to restoring and strengthening the emotional well-being of children (from birth to age 24) and their families. For more than 60 years, the Guidance Center has been a place of hope and healing, providing innovative and compassionate treatment to all regardless of their ability to pay.
“Team Manhasset is poised to join in the spirit of this competition, and we will enjoy putting our talents to the test,” said Mondiello. “This is going to be an outstanding event. Our goal is to raise no less than $200,000 this year, all of which goes to support the important work of the Guidance Center.”
“It’s going to be a great way to raise funds and awareness of our programs while having a terrific day at the Creek, which is one of Long Island’s finest golf courses,” said Andrew Malekoff, executive director of the Guidance Center. “The event is crucial to our fundraising efforts, and will help us continue to help thousands of children each year who are struggling with issues such as bullying, depression, anxiety, divorce and substance abuse.”
