The local chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention will hold its 3rd annual Out of Darkness golf tournament on Sunday at Blue Stone Golf Course in Oxford.

Danielle Marshman, Team Chenango captain, explains why they do fundraisers throughout the year.

"We do all this to raise money for American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, which helps them lobby for laws," she said. "The do a lot of research for mental health and the most important thing for me is they help the survivors of someone who's lose a loved one to suicide."

Funds raised also help Team Chenango take part in the National Walk in Washington DC. this summer.
