The Golf for Charity Classic, co-hosted by Richard P. Slaughter Associates and RPS Retirement Plan Advisors, contributes $60,000 to four local charities and raises its 16-year donation total to $685,000.
AUSTIN — For the 16th year, the Golf for Charity Classic served as a catalyst for helping local nonprofits serving the Central Texas community. With support from vendor sponsors, the event’s co-hosts – Richard P. Slaughter Associates and RPS Retirement Plan Advisors – were able to contribute $60,000 to four area nonprofits and elevated the 16-year total to $685,000.
“As a 33-year-old company, we’ve been extremely blessed over the years,” said Slaughter Associates President and CEO Brooks Slaughter. “It’s important to us that we give back to our community and do it in a way that makes a positive and significant impact on organizations doing great work in Central Texas.”
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’ and RPS’ clients, vendor partners, and invited guests. The 2024 Golf for Charity Classic was further made possible by support from numerous sponsors including CWS Capital Partners, Don E. Cox and Associates, Eaton Vance, John Hancock Investment Management, Hartford Funds, Columbia Threadneedle, Liberty Street Advisors, Reams Asset Management, Resolute Investment Managers, Specialty Insurance Managers, AMG, Fidelity Investments, J.P.
