November 8, 2026 – News Release – The Northeastern Zone of The Retired Educators of NY held their first annual golf tournament this summer. With the proceeds, we were thrilled to present The Interfaith Food Shelf and St. Joseph’s Food Pantry with checks for $1000 each. The planning for next year’s event has already begun. We will be looking for golfers, volunteers and sponsors. It’s a fun event and a wonderful way to give back to our community.
