C&W to Host 2014 Industrial Charity Golf Outing on Sept. 8
Event in Bolingbrook, Ill, to Support Military Heroes via Operation FINALLY HOME
BOLINGBROOK, Ill., Aug. 18, 2014 – Cushman & Wakefield will host its 2014 Industrial Charity Golf Outing to benefit Operation FINALLY HOME on Monday, Sept. 8, at the Bolingbrook Golf Club in Bolingbrook. Registration is open and sponsorship opportunities are available for the event, which will support the nation's military heroes.
"We are thrilled that our golf outing this year will benefit Project FINALLY HOME, a non-profit that provides injured service members with mortgage-free homes custom built to their specific needs for accessibility and ease of maintenance," noted Cushman & Wakefield's Bethany Bailey, managing director of strategy and operations, Industrial Services for the Americas.
"Receiving a home removes a huge financial burden on our military heroes and allows them to focus on healing and preparing for their families' futures," she added. "We are proud to be spearheading a great opportunity for members of the commercial real estate community to come together for this great cause."
Check-in for the Sept. 8 event will begin at 11 a.m., with a shotgun start at 1 p.m. Participants will enjoy 18 holes of golf with cart, range use and club cleaning; fun on-course games and contests; use of the club's locker rooms, fitness room, steam room, whirlpool and sauna; lunch, beer on the course, post-golf cocktail hour with premium bar service, and buffet dinner. The cost is $1,300 per standard foursome, $350 per individual golfer and $150 for the dinner only. A block of reduced-rate hotel rooms is available nearby.
All proceeds from Cushman & Wakefield's Industrial Charity Golf Outing will benefit Operation FINALLY HOME. Sponsorship opportunities begin at $1,000. For more information, email bethany.bailey@cushwake.com.
