VANCOUVER, WA — The Sundt Foundation’s Pacific Northwest Charity Golf Tournament raised $50,000 for the Pararescue Foundation. The tournament brought together 136 golfers.
“Pararescue service members dedicate their careers to helping others in critical moments, and we are proud to support an organization that stands behind them and their families when they face challenges of their own,” said Emily Dwosh, Sundt Foundation Executive Director and Sundt Community Relations Manager. “We are grateful to every golfer, sponsor, and volunteer who helped make this tournament a meaningful expression of appreciation for their service.”
Proceeds will help the foundation relieve the physical and psychological demands of service and provide tragedy, transition, and education assistance to one of the nation’s most elite rescue and recover communities — its service members, veterans, and their families.
“Those who serve at the highest levels of rescue and recovery — who live the motto, ‘These things we do that others may live,’ and who must always be at their best when others’ lives hang in the balance — need a level of support that matches what they give,” said Anthony Negron, Cofounder and Board Member of the Pararescue Foundation. “The Pararescue Foundation is that safety net.”
Through the Sundt Foundation and other corporate giving efforts, Sundt has committed to donating $65 million to nonprofit organizations nationwide by 2035.
