Thank you to the Members of the Worcester Country Club (WCC) who Chipped In for Access to the Arts for All at the 44th Annual Lori Lajoie Charity Golf Tournament. Golfers blazed a course for success at this annual tradition, inspired by a young girl with disabilities, Lori Lajoie, and her parents, Coco and Ray, WCC's former golf pro. Paying tribute and testimony to the challenges of disabilities this year was the LPGA's Brittany Altomare, whose grandparents, former WCC Members Nick and Mary Altomare, advocated for their son's quality of life with disabilities. Mary was a founding member of the Worcester Association of Retarded Citizens - now Seven Hills Foundation. At the event, Altomare and the WCC.
Members championed the impact that Therapeutic Arts is having on people withdisabilities, brain injury, and significant life challenges - coloring their quality of life with a palette of possibilities that bring their talents to the table, the easel, the stage, the instrument. The potential is palpable and Seven Hills is profoundly grateful to the WCC Members for helping to steer the course toward success. With your generous support, our participants will experience the joy of self-expression, and the Worcester community will be enriched by its impact.
