May 18, 2025 — The 24th Annual Robert F. Novins Memorial Golf Tournament & Reception was a resounding success, raising over $210,000 to benefit the Volunteers in Medicine (VIM) Clinic of Martin County. This remarkable achievement would not have been possible without the generosity of our dedicated sponsors and the inspiring leadership of our event hosts.

Carson Novins, along with his sisters Beth Novins and Jeffrey Hartt, served as gracious hosts for this year’s tournament. Their ongoing commitment to honoring the legacy of Robert F. Novins has helped the event grow into a powerful force for good in the community. Over the past 13 years, the tournament has raised more than $2 million for the Clinic.

“We are incredibly grateful to all of our sponsors, donors, and volunteers whose support makes this event—and the mission of VIM Clinic—possible,” said Mary Fields, Executive Director at VIM Clinic. “This legacy of compassion and community truly embodies the spirit of Robert F. Novins.”

This year’s tournament also celebrated the winning team of Pedro Knade, Megan Pierce, John Wolfner, and Matt Glass, who took home top honors on the green.

All proceeds from the event go directly to the Volunteers in Medicine Clinic, which provides free medical care to low-income, uninsured residents of Martin County. Each donation ensures that vulnerable individuals have access to compassionate healthcare services when they need them most.

The organization is already looking ahead to next year’s 25th Anniversary celebration of the Robert F. Novins Memorial Golf Tournament—a milestone event that promises to be the most meaningful yet.
