Becker Underwood (Booth # 2852) made a generous $5,210 donation to the Wee One Foundation to support the group's mission to assist superintendets and their families in need.
A gigantic check was passed on to Wee One Executive Director Luke Cella during a brief ceremony at the Becker Underwood booth on the show floor yesterday.
Cella said the foundation's mission is only possible through the charitable efforts of companies like Becker Underwood.
The Wee One Foundation was developed as a tribute to Wayne to assist golf course management professionals (or their dependents) who incur overwhelming expenses due to medical hardship without comprehensive insurance or adequate financial resources. Through the Foundation's work, Wayne's legacy will never be forgotten.
Since its inception in 2004, membership within the Wee One Foundation has grown to over 270 in 17 states. More importantly, the Wee One Foundation has gifted over $500,000 to families in Arizona, Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, North Carolina, Idaho, Minnesota, California, and Texas. As the Wee One grows more people are helped and more funds are needed to distribute.
