Builders Tee Off in Support of At-Risk Children Education
McCarthy Dallas, a Texas division of McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., hosted its 16th annual McCarthy Dallas Charity Golf Classic on Friday, May 13th. The tournament, which took place at The Tribute at The Colony, raised $25,000 by teaming-up with 120 employees, friends and clients for the tournament, raffles, on-course games and personal contributions to benefit Mi Escuelita Preschool of Dallas.
"We’re proud to continue our long history of building-up and supporting our local community, and Mi Escuelita has a special place in our hearts," said Ray Sedey, Texas Region president. “This year was our largest turn-out ever at the tournament, and it was really awesome to see our folks come together to raise funds for the children at Mi Escuelita Preschool.”
A check for $25,000 was presented to Gayle Nave, president and CEO of Mi Escuelita, at the tournament.
"We are so thankful to have a company like McCarthy supporting the work we do at Mi Escuelita," said Nave. "The lives of hundreds of children are certainly enhanced by McCarthy’s donations of funds and time over the years. McCarthy has helped us lay the foundation on which these deserving children will build their future.”
