HOUSTON, TX — BrandSafway, a provider of access, forming and shoring, and specialty services to the industrial, commercial, and infrastructure markets, has raised $112,000 for The Sunshine Kids Foundation and Combat Marine Outdoors (CMO) charities during its annual golf tournament held at Bay Oaks Country Club in Houston, Texas. The event has raised more than $750,000 for various charities over the past 15 years. This year, the event was renamed The BrandSafway Austin Stonestreet Memorial Golf Tournament, in honor of a leader who served as the company’s Regional Vice President, Gulf Region. Austin Stonestreet was a husband and father who passed away last year after a battle with cancer. “Austin Stonestreet led with integrity, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to our people, our customers, our business, and our community during his 13 years of service,” BrandSafway President and CEO Gabriel McCabe said. “We are honored to continue the tournament in his name and to have raised funds for two charities that are particularly meaningful for us, The Sunshine Kids Foundation and Combat Marine Outdoors.” The Sunshine Kids Foundation is a nonprofit that has been serving children with cancer since 1982. The foundation is committed to providing positive group activities and emotional support for young cancer patients through a variety of programs and events, free of charge, for children who are receiving cancer treatments in hospitals across North America. Combat Marine Outdoors is a nonprofit dedicated to healing visible and invisible wounds of the nation’s heroes. CMO provides outdoor adventures through approximately 100 ranches that actively participate in the program. More than 10,000 combat veterans have participated in outings designed to create an environment of friendship, camaraderie, and fellowship and accelerate recovery from traumatic injuries sustained in combat. “The BrandSafway Austin Stonestreet Memorial Golf Tournament is especially significant for us this year,” said Todd Bonvillian, BrandSafway Senior Vice President, Growth. “This tournament is an opportunity to bring together our team members and industry partners to positively impact our communities. It is one of the highlights of our year, raising funds that make a difference, celebrating friendship, and creating a beautiful legacy of hope in Austin’s name.” More than 50 BrandSafway volunteers planned and hosted this year’s event. In addition, dozens of industry partners supported the event through sponsorships and player participation.
