Volunteers of America Southeast Louisiana’s annual GolfStar Classic tees off Tuesday, March 13, 2018, at TPC Louisiana (11001 Lapalco Boulevard, Avondale, LA) to benefit Volunteers of America Southeast Louisiana’s Adoption and Maternity Program. All who come out to enjoy a day on the course will be treated to a day of fun and excitement with delicious food, live and silent auctions, and the opportunity to win a 2018 Honda Pilot EX-L.

“For more than 25 years, this tournament has allowed us to unite adoptive families with the children they have so desperately longed for. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to our sponsors, donors, golfers and volunteers who help us create forever families,” says Jim LeBlanc, President and CEO of Volunteers of America Southeast Louisiana.

As a licensed adoption agency for over 70 years, Volunteers of America is a respected pioneer in issues such as open adoption. The Adoption and Maternity Program works with both women facing unplanned pregnancies and with married couples struggling with fertility, and has united thousands of forever families over the decades. The Volunteers of America Southeast Louisiana GolfStar Classic is the sole fundraiser benefiting the Adoption and Maternity Program and has gained a reputation as a leading regional charity tournament across Louisiana.

Tournament sponsors, who generously help us carry out this program’s mission, include Jay Trusheim Prudential Financial Professional, offering P&C through Liberty Mutual Insurance, along with Entergy, TPC Louisiana, Fore!Kids Foundation, The New Orleans Advocate and Superior Honda of New Orleans.
