- President Steve Stensland Presents Lisa Hallett of the Folds of Honor Foundation with the Donation Check at the WWC PGA Fall Meeting
The WWC PGA celebrated it’s Pro-Member fund raising charity initiative with a presentation of $25,397 to the Fold of Honor Foundation at the Fall General Meeting on October 14. The Chapter raised the money at each pro-member and senior pro-member event of the year by asking players to donate an extra $5. The host golf courses all donated a “rounds of golf certificate” for four players to be used as a raffle prize in a drawing at their event, in which each player that had donated was entered.
Lisa Hallett, whose husband John was killed in action in Iraq, was present to receive the check on behalf of the Folds of Honor Foundation. The Foundation grants educational scholarship money to those families who have had a spouse killed or disabled in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
U.S.retired Marine and PGA professional Fred Jacobson was honored for his work to fully restore and donate a classic Club Car golf cart in Marine Corp colors. The golf cart raffle alone raised over $4,000 of the donation total.
