Our golf marathon program, directed by Don, raised over $500,000 for our Why Wait? campaign. I wish you the greatest success!"

"Great thanks, Don. We've run golf tournaments for years. Our event with Champion Events Group raised almost $100,000 with just 26 golfers, three times more money than our next best golf event in our 30-year history! I recommend you highly to anyone needing to raise money."
