These ladies represented the GFWC Brentwood Woman's Club well yesterday in the 4th Annual Brentwood Country Club Ladies Golf Tournament.  The tournament is a fundraiser for Morning Star Sanctuary, a Christian refuge for victims of domestic violence.  Their team won 1st Place with a score of 67 in the second flight.  A total of $18,000 was raised to help fund the shelter.

The women of the GFWC Brentwood Woman's Club help to save our sisters from domestic violence in many ways, such as golfing in fundraising tournaments, awarding scholarships, and donating supplies for families in crisis.  Our purpose as a club is to raise awareness and to help prevent domestic violence.  Domestic violence knows know ZIP code and unfortunately Tennessee ranks third in the number of domestic violence cases.
 
Please help support families of domestic violence.  We invite you to make donations to Morning Star Sanctuary and Bridges Domestic Violence Center, two of the organizations that we support as a club.
