AUSTIN — What started as a customer appreciation event 15 years ago has become an annual event that makes a significant impact on local nonprofits in the Central Texas area. Today, the Golf for Charity Classic hosted by Richard P. Slaughter Associates contributed $60,000 to local nonprofits, reaching a 15-year total of $625,000.
“Supporting our community has always been an important part of our DNA,” said President and CEO Brooks Slaughter. “Each year, thanks to our sponsors, we bring together our clients and partners for a fun outing, all while benefiting local charities where our employees volunteer. It is wonderful to have that engagement level so that we can see the donations at work immediately.”
This year’s nonprofit recipients – Texas Parent to Parent, the Christi Center, AGE of Central Texas, and the Autism Society of Central Texas – were on hand today at the Charity for Golf Tournament at Twin Creeks Country Club with an opportunity to educate more than 80 attendees on their mission and community impact.
Texas Parent to Parent provides peer-matching services to families raising children with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or other special health care needs.
The Christi Center is a grief support organization that provides peer-based support groups information and referral, outreach and education on grief issues, and limited individual counseling.
AGE of Central Texas offers Adult Day health centers that provide daytime care for older adults with physical needs or memory loss.
The Autism Society of Central Texas changes lives by connecting families and individuals to community resources and support throughout Central Texas.
The Golf for Charity Classic serves as a ‘thank you’ and social gathering for Slaughter Associates’ clients, vendor partners, and invited guests. The 2023 Golf for Charity Classic was further made possible by support from numerous sponsors including CWS Capital Partners, Don E. Cox and Associates, Franklin Templeton, John Hancock, Liberty Street Advisors, Nexpoint, Reams Asset Management, Resolute IM, Specialty Insurance Managers, STRÜB Residential Group, Virtus Investment Partners, and Wood, Johnson, Heath, P.C.
