A natural disaster has once again affected many within the golf community. As with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma in 2017, Hurricane Florence left a trail of devastation with countless golf facilities receiving significant damage that will take months to repair. Equally, if not more important, are the GCSAA members whose lives have been altered. Numerous members have still not been able to return to their homes to assess the damage.
In times such as this, the GCSAA Disaster Relief Fund is critical in ensuring GCSAA members who need help get it. Developed after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the Fund is designed to provide assistance to members personally affected by natural disasters.
As it did one year ago, Better Billy Bunker has announced a matching program for those wanting to show their support for GCSAA members through the Disaster Relief Fund. BBB will match the first $10,000 in individual donations made to the Fund.
“The images from Hurricane Florence are heartbreaking,” Better Billy Bunker officials said. “However, as we have seen in the past, it is during the darkest times that our close-knit industry shows its resolve. We encourage all those within the golf family to support the GCSAA Disaster Relief Fund. We want our friends impacted by Florence to know they have the backing of their organization and colleagues.”
