ESPN broadcasters Mike Greenberg and Herm Edwards will speak at the dinner reception of Voices of September 11th (VOICES) 3rd annual charity golf outing on Tuesday, Sept. 5 at the Country Club of Fairfield.
“Funds raised from the golf outing and reception will enable VOICES to provide long-term mental health care for victims’ families, responders and survivors and to assist communities in preparing for and recovering from acts of terrorism and mass violence, both here in the U.S. and abroad,” said VOICES Founding Director Mary Fetchet.
The event will also support VOICES Resilience Center, which helps communities impacted by traumatic events, she added.
Mike Greenberg is co-host of ESPN’s long-running Mike & Mike program, which he hosts with Mike Golic, and is a New York Times best-selling author. In 2016, both Greenberg and Golic were inducted in the National Association of Broadcasters Broadcasting Hall of Fame.
