Funds Raised During Company's 3rd Annual PA CASA Golf Tournament Support the Important Work of the Pennsylvania Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children
Organic Remedies Raises $80,000 to Support PA CASA
The company's third annual fundraising golf tournament, held Sept. 6 at the Carlisle Country Club, raised funds through golf registrations and other golf activities. More than 100 golfers, including business partners and other medical marijuana industry representatives, participated in the golf outing to raise funds for PA CASA. This year's contribution of $80,000 surpassed the amount raised last year by $20,000. The donation was presented to the organization Oct. 16 at Carlisle Country Club in Carlisle, Pa.
"No child living on this earth should ever have to fear their life at home, questioning whether they will eat that day and/or be abused by family members. We are proud to support PA CASA in aiding children and giving them the chance to have a better life. We hope that our contribution can advance training and create new programs to help children secure a safe and permanent home,” said Mark Toigo, CEO, Organic Remedies.
"We are more than grateful for Organic Remedies and their significant contribution to support our mission 'to grow, strengthen, and unite local CASA programs so they can ensure the safety, well-being, and forever home for every abused and/or neglected child in Pa.' With 21 local programs serving 32 counties across the state, there is still much work to be done, and this donation will go a long way in advancing our training and creating new programs in Pennsylvania,” said Jennifer DeBalko, CEO and President, PA Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children. "Thank you, Organic Remedies.”
