Core Group Resources is hosting a charity golf event in support of Mercy Ships' volunteer crew fund, on March 29, in Katy, Texas, west of the Houston Energy Corridor.

The hosts are currently seeking additional teams, sponsors and donations to support the golf outing at the Falcon Point Golf Club, which will also include a barbecue, auction and raffles for golfers and non-golfers alike.

Mercy Ships is an international charity operating the world's largest nongovernmental hospital ships to provide humanitarian aid like free health care and community development projects in developing nations around the world, with a current focus on Africa.

"By donating to Mercy Ships volunteer crew fund today, you will become a valued partner—a crewmate!" said Mercy Ships' Miranda Strawbridge. "As a crewmate, you are helping make a lasting impact on the people of Africa, bringing even more hope and healing to the forgotten poor. The crew on Mercy Ships vessels keep our ships and the hospitals onboard operating. The crew’s efforts enable the medical crew to save more lives through surgical intervention and medical capacity building projects."
