The Pacific Power first annual
United Way Golf Tournament on September 16th at Chehalem Glenn Golf Course in Newberg was
executed with great success! The tournament hosted 112 players and over
25 sponsors to raise money for United Way.
Pacific Power is also a member of United Way's Cornerstone Partners which means they are one of the 17 local companies who have chosen to designate their corporate gifts to the United Way of the Columbia-Willamette, to help underwrite operating costs. Because of their support, 100% of contributions received will be invested in local programs to help people in need.
Teams had the pleasure of playing
one of the most challenging courses in the Northwest, while supporting long
lasting change in our community through United Way of the Columbia-Willamette.All proceeds went to United Way’s Community Impact Fund, creating opportunities for a better life for all in our four-county Portland/Vancouver metro area by focusing on improving education, income and health, the building block for a good quality of life.
In addition to contributions from sponsors and participants’ green fees, money was also raised through the sale of Mulligans and Hole-in-One chances. Golfers and volunteers convened for a BBQ lunch after the tournament where awards were announced and door prizes given to a few lucky winners. All in all, the fundraiser was a great success and a lot of fun for those involved.
