Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens is honored to have Ken Rosato, anchor of WABC-TV’s Eyewitness News, as our emcee for the 2017 Bishop Joseph M. Sullivan Memorial Golf Classic on Monday, September 25th at the Sands Point Golf Club. This fundraiser is held annually to benefit thousands of children throughout Brooklyn and Queens through our early education and child care services, helping so many families get a head start on life.
Mr. Rosato has been graciously donating his time and talents to CCBQ events since 2009, and we look forward to another exciting and successful event.
