The Ocean Reef Chamber of Commerce hosts a Golf & Dolphin Tournament annually, and has for the first time donated all proceeds to charity.
"We were proud to partner with the United Way of the Florida Keys for this year's golf and fishing tournament. The organization provides much needed assistance to caring organizations in the Keys, and we are thrilled that we could make a small contribution towards their efforts," said Chamber President Greg Lunsford.
At the Chamber’s monthly luncheon in October, Lunsford presented a check to United Way of the Florida Keys President Margie Smith. “We want to thank all the participants and sponsors for helping making our community a better place and funding our work to support strong, working families,” Smith said, “All funds raised in the Keys stay in the Keys.”
Sponsors for the event included The Plaza Building at Ocean Reef; Reef Tropical Pool & Lawn; Chef Wesley Brage; Amy Heavilin; Maggie Gutierrez; Aran, Correa, Guarch & Shapiro, P.A.; The Medical Center at Ocean Reef; Russell Post Sotheby’s International Realty; The UPS Store Key Largo ~ Ocean Reef; Pilates in Paradise; Islamorada Investment Management; Vogt Spear Construction; Joyce Griffin; Restivo & Reilly, LLC; Andy Griffiths; Key Largo Chocolates; Going Aire; Royal Furniture Gallery; First State Bank; Planet Golf; JLM Painting; and Heavenly Touch.
To learn more about the work of the United Way of the Florida Keys, you can attend upcoming presentations at the Islamorada Chamber of Commerce luncheon, Oct. 24, at the Islamorada Fishing Club, and at the Marathon Rotary luncheon, Oct. 31.
“Anyone who would like to arrange for a United Way presentation where they work,” Smith said, “or to donate directly, can also contact our office at 735-1929.”
