CFS Brings Charity Event in Support of Make-A-Wish® New Jersey to New Heights

June 19, 2019

Paramus, NJ - Certified Financial Services, LLC (CFS) will once again host the longest-running charity event in support of Make-A-Wish® New Jersey, going on its 33rd year. Contributing to an accumulated value of over $1 million, CFS has surpassed its annual donation in providing the charity with a check of $75,000 from its 32nd Annual Tee Off for the Kids golf outing. The charity golf outing started 33 years ago headed by Honorary Chairman, Bill Getherall, and has grown into a prominent event within New Jersey.

Today, under the leadership of Chairman, Craig Feinberg, and dedicated committee members and volunteers, the Annual Tee Off for the Kids has been taken to new heights, attracting local businesses, families, and individuals all interested in supporting the mission of CFS and Make-A-Wish New Jersey.

“The power of a wish and what it does for a wish child and their family is indescribable,” Craig Feinberg expresses. “The focus of our golf outing is to support Make-A-Wish New Jersey by helping them grant every wish that comes through their doors. Each year we strive to raise monies that exceed the previous year.”

CFS functions on the ideal of helping individuals, families, and business owners to better themselves and their futures through innovative financial tools and knowledge. The firm has been strongly committed to working with like-minded and similar-valued organizations to strengthen the community in one form or another. As they prepare for the 33rd Annual Tee Off for the Kids on Monday, August 5th at the North Jersey Country Club, CFS has opened opportunities for everyone to get involved, from participating in a day of golf or joining for dinner to sponsoring different parts of the event or donating raffle items.
