Golf Fore Homes – Annual Charity Golf Outing

Tee Off for a Great Cause

This is a Past Event

Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity is proud to present our annual Golf Fore Homes Charity Golf Outing, a day of great golf, great company, and an even greater cause. This year’s event will take place on May 4, 2026, at the beautiful New Jersey National Golf Club in Basking Ridge, NJ, with registration beginning at 10:00 AM. The outing brings together community members, sponsors, and supporters to help build and repair safe, affordable homes for families in our region.

Every swing, every putt, and every sponsorship helps make a lasting impact. Funds raised through Golf Fore Homes support critical home repairs, accessibility improvements, and affordable housing initiatives that help local families live in safe, healthy, and stable homes. It’s a powerful way to enjoy a day on the course while directly supporting our income-insecure neighbors.

Golfers will enjoy a full day of activities, including an 18-hole scramble format, contests, prizes, and raffles throughout the course. The event also includes lunch, refreshments, a BBQ dinner, and an awards reception, making it as enjoyable off the course as it is on it. Whether you’re playing to win or just playing for fun, the outing offers a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere for golfers of all skill levels.

Golf Fore Homes is more than just a tournament—it’s a community tradition and an opportunity to come together for a meaningful purpose. We invite golfers, sponsors, and supporters to join us for a memorable day and help us continue building strength, stability, and self-reliance through housing.

Following this, the full event will kick off at 9 AM, featuring a variety of activities and opportunities to connect with valuable community resources.

Local service providers from Somerset and Hunterdon counties will be on hand to offer information about the support and services they provide. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn more about resources available to our community members.

In addition to resource providers, we are hosting a donation drive to support our veterans. We are collecting men’s and women’s socks, underwear, t-shirts, and hygiene products. Your contributions will make a significant difference to those who have served our country.

To show our appreciation for veterans and first responders, all attendees in these groups will receive a 25% discount on purchases made at the ReStore during the event. It is our way of saying thank you for your dedication and service.

The event will also feature T-Shirt Giveaways, ReStore Specials, and a 50/50 raffle. You may purchase tickets for the raffle at the ReStore any time before the event, and the drawing will take place at noon. Do not miss your chance to win and support a great cause!
