In late April, 180 employees, customers and vendors of Mesa, Ariz.-based Farnsworth Wholesale Co.gathered at the Biltmore Country Club for the annual FWC Golf Classic 2015.
Farnsworth raised $5,000, which was donated to AzBrainfood, a local nonprofit organization that provides food to hungry children. The tournament featured a hole benefiting AzBrainfood where each team had the option of donating $20. Teams were incentivized to give as their donation would in turn allow Farnsworth President Mark Shill to hit for their team. Almost every team participated.
“Our annual golf tournament is great fun for our employees and partners, and to be able to give back to a local organization is a great honor for us,” Shill said. “We are proud to have been able to contribute to AzBrainfood this year and look forward to making a bigger impact as our tournament grows in the future.”
