Gesher Human Services’ annual 
Lois Zussman Golf Classic, which 
raises funds to support the Lois and 
Milton Y. Zussman Activity Center 
in Southfield for adults living with 
mental illness, raised a record-
breaking amount this year. 
With 180 participants and 
attendees enjoying the golf activities 
and evening reception, dinner 
and auction, held at Franklin Hills 
Country Club, approximately 
$250,000 was raised. Last year’s 

event raised just over $200,000 for 
the center, which is also known as 
Clubhouse. 
“We were blown away by the 
support of local golfers for this 
important fundraiser, which helps 
some of the most vulnerable in 
our community lead meaningful 
and fulfilling lives by attending 
Clubhouse,” said CEO of Gesher 
Human Services Paul Blatt.
