Sargent & Lundy scored a hole-in-one helping raise over $100,000 for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Puerto Rico. For the second year, the firm was the presenting sponsor for the Tee Off, Drive for Change charity golf tournament.
About 150 players participated in the tournament at the Grand Reserve Golf Club in Río Grande, the site of the PGA Tour’s Puerto Rico Open. Andrew Eigner, the 2023 Amateur World Long Drive champion, helped raise additional funds by demonstrating his skills on the 18th hole.
“This event is more than a great day out on the course with our coworkers and friends,” said Sargent & Lundy Senior Vice President Vince Heinz. “It’s a chance to put our ‘meaningful impact’ core value into action. It’s incredibly rewarding to be part of a company that serves youth and invests in the communities where we live and work.”
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Puerto Rico serve more than 16,000 children and youth at 25 service centers across the island providing educational, socio-emotional, and workforce development programs that help them succeed in school and build leadership skills.
“Sargent & Lundy’s leadership as presenting sponsor has helped raise essential funds that directly support our programs for thousands of children, youth, and families across the island,” said Alma Frontera Colón, president and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Puerto Rico. “We truly appreciate your partnership and shared commitment to building opportunity, strengthening communities, and empowering the next generation.”
Through its annual Lundy Legends golf tournament and other charitable donations, Sargent & Lundy and its employees have raised more than $825,000 for national Boys & Girls Clubs programs.
