Connecting to Something Greater: Telecom for Change Golf Event

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Thanks to the generosity of our incredible Partner community, Telecom for Change raised money for three fantastic causes at its 3rd Annual Golf Event.
We here at Intelisys are honored to be a part of Telecom for Change, a professional organization of telecom agents and carriers who come together to provide aid to charitable organizations. It’s truly humbling to see how our partner community is dedicated to making a difference and helping communities.
The 2017 Telecom for Change Golf Event raised $25,000 for the Notre Dame of Maryland University School of Nursing. Combined with the donation from a prior event, they were able to establish an endowment for the NDMU’s Trailblazer Scholars Program. The Trailblazers program provides support and resources for first-generation students in the Nursing program.
The generosity of our partner community made it possible to give an additional $5,000 to the beneficiary of the 2016 Telecom for Change Golf Event, The Ashley Lauren Foundation, which was founded to provide assistance to families and children diagnosed with pediatric cancer.
The putting contest also raised $760 for the Darren Suders Family Trust, established to help Darren’s wife and children after his unexpected passing. With Telecom for Change’s matching donation, the family will receive $1520. If you would like to learn more about how you can help Darren’s family, please click HERE.
We deeply appreciate these opportunities to give back to our community, and to connect to something greater than each of us as individuals. Thank you again, Partners, for your generosity!
Pictures from the 2017 Telecom for Change Golf Event have also been posted on the Telecom for Change Facebook page.
