Friends and benefactors of the Cancer Center for Kids (CCFK) at
Winthrop gathered at the Hamlet Wind Watch Golf and Country Club in
Hauppauge, NY on June 21 for the Sixth Annual Cancer Center for Kids
Golf Outing. The event was a record-breaking success, raising nearly
$50,000 in support of vital pediatric cancer services at Winthrop,
bringing the group’s total fundraising to more than $250,000.

Six years ago, event founder and co-chairman Michael C.
Stroud, president of Atlas Investigations, Inc., joined forces with his
business associate, Rosemary Cinquemani, partner in the law firm of
Furey, Kerley, Walsh, Matera & Cinquemani, P.C., to organize the
first annual CCFK golf outing. One year later Frank Catelli, partner
in the law firm of Furey, Furey, Leverage, Manzione, Williams &
Darlington, P.C. came on board as a co-chair and since then, the
trio’s hard work and generosity has raised more than a quarter of a
million dollars for the Center’s pediatric patients and their families.
“I can’t think of a more worthwhile cause than helping these
patients and their parents,” said Mr. Catelli.
“We would like to thank everyone who came out and generously
supported this year’s event,” said Ms. Cinquemani. “The physicians
and staff at the CCFK provide invaluable services, care and compassion
to young patients and their families. They need our continued
support, and we hope everyone joins us again next year for our 7th Annual Golf Outing on June 20, 2011.”
