On August 14th, DeSales Media Group, the communications arm of the Diocese of Brooklyn, held the 19th Annual Bishop DiMarzio Golf Classic at North Hills Country Club in Manhasset.

All proceeds from this year’s event benefited Cristo Rey Brooklyn High School. For over six years, the Brooklyn school has been educating young people of limited economic means to become men and women of faith, purpose and service. The school is part of the Cristo Rey National Network, which utilizes the innovative Corporate Work Study Program to help finance their education and make it affordable to students who might not otherwise have access to a quality education.

The event, which raised $100,000 for Cristo Rey Brooklyn, also honored Reverend Monsignor Peter Kain of St. Ephrem as Pastor of the Year, and Robert Catell, board member for Cristo Rey.
