4th Annual Goat For Joe Golf Classic

The annual Goat For Joe Golf Tournament and BBQ is a fundraising event orchestrated by Dana and Andrea Albert through the San Marcos Rotary Club Foundation.  The presenting sponsor is Lawyers Title San Diego.  This was created in memory of Joseph Aaron Nunez, Andrea’s brother, who passed away by suicide in March 2017.  There are several families in North County San Diego that may have a “Joe” in their lives that is struggling with mental illness such as suicidal behavior, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or any other debilitating mental disability.

We strive to create community awareness and to educate people about identifying mental illness in loved ones.  We will provide families with options to consider for treatment.  Often times and particularly in grown men, people are ashamed and afraid to seek out professional and spiritual help.  We hope to eliminate the stigma of the topic and to encourage families to seek out resources that can help with Suicide Prevention and Mental Illness treatment.

The primary beneficiary or financial proceeds is True Care Behavioral Health Division.  True Care, formerly North County Health Services, is a San Marcos based non-profit medical service provider serving those with limited income or limited access to affordable healthcare services.  True Care has specialty centers with Mental & Behavioral Health service in Oceanside, San Marcos, and Perris.

Virtual 25th Annual English Tea

Virtual 25th Annual English Tea

April 4, 2020 | 1:30 PM – 4:00 PM

Encinitas Community Center, 1140 Oakcrest Park Drive, Encinitas, CA 92024

Due to COVID-19, CRC’s 25th Annual English Tea has been canceled. But, even though we can’t attend in person on April 4, we can all “attend” online. The Tea raises critical funding for CRC, and was budgeted to raise $100,000 this year, so we hope you’ll support the event from your homes.

The English Tea, a benefit fundraiser for Community Resource Center, provides funding for CRC’s domestic violence program and all our wraparound services that provide food, housing, counseling and legal advocacy to those who are hungry, homeless and hurting in our community.

The Tea will feature a silent auction, raffle, short program … and delightful tea! Each guest will enjoy homemade tea sandwiches, scones & sweets, champagne and tea.

The program will feature Dr. Ami Roeschlein , CRC’s Clinical Supervisor, who will speak on “Resilience.” She will highlight the advances we’ve made in the past 10 years, and where we are headed in the future, to not only provide the best support and treatment for survivors of domestic violence, but to help them thrive. You’ll learn how the resilience of a community can support the resilience of an individual, and how your support provides paths to new lives for survivors and their children.

The English Tea sells out every year, so please don’t wait to purchase your ticket! We hope you can join us.
