ICO BENEFITS FROM 24TH ANNUAL “BARNES STREET OPEN” HORSESHOE TOURNAMENT
It was a beautiful summer day on the beach in Nags Head on Saturday September 8th, 2018 for the 24th Annual Barnes Street Open Horseshoe Tournament. A great day was had by all while playing horseshoes and fellowship on the beach; all while raising money for local charities. Interfaith Community Outreach was honored to be chosen as this year’s recipient, receiving a check in the amount of $1520. Our sincere thank you to Mike O’Brien, with Kempsville Building Materials for his hard work in organizing this tournament. A big thank you to the corporate sponsors, Kempsville Building Materials, Bonzer Shack, Tortugas Lie and Hurricane MO’s who helped make this event possible. Thank you to all participants for another successful event – your generosity allows ICO to help our neighbors in need that are facing a temporary emergency crisis. In 2017 ICO assisted 996 families positively affecting the lives of over 2281 individuals and was able to give back to our community over $275,000 in monetary outreach. ICO was able to help these residents with utility bills, rent, mortgage, medical deposits, physician appointments, dental emergencies, prescriptions, cancer travel reimbursement to get to medical appointments, cars donated, referrals, insurances, hurricane relief and any other emergency crisis fulfilling the basic life needs for our neighbors in need who are faced with a crisis emergency, or faced with cancer.
