Want to Increase Your Presence with a New Audience? See What These Chamber Members Are Doing

The J. Douglas Williams YMCA is proud to announce its Second Annual J. Douglas Williams YMCA Golf Classic, taking place Monday, March 23, at Heathrow Country Club. This premier community event brings together local businesses, community leaders, and supporters for a day of golf with a powerful purpose—raising funds to support vital YMCA programs that strengthen our community.

Thanks to the generosity of our Chamber partners and local businesses, the YMCA raised more than $80,000 at last year’s tournament to fund essential programs, including teen leadership initiatives, LIVESTRONG® at the YMCA, youth sports, swim lessons, adaptive swim lessons, and programs that support seniors and families. These initiatives ensure individuals of all ages and abilities have access to wellness, connection, and life-changing opportunities.

Chamber businesses are not only supporting a meaningful cause—they are also expanding their reach. With more than 140 golfers expected to attend, sponsors and silent auction donors gain valuable exposure to a highly engaged local audience. All silent auction donors are invited to include marketing materials in the SWAG bags each golfer will receive, and the YMCA will highlight sponsors and auction donors across its social media platforms.

We would like to extend special thanks to the following generous donors:

• Deborah and Chuck Morris, Keller Williams Advantage Realty – Original matted acrylic painting by Deborah Morris

• Pam Hargis, Focal Point Coaching – Business coaching session

• Julia Fasciglione, Front Running Sports – Gift card donation

• LaVeta Hayes, Living Legacies with LaVeta – Certificate for college coaching services

• Derek Bornstein, Boca Restaurant – Dining gift card

• Orlando Health – Gift basket

• Jason Bailey, Alive Ozone Therapy – Gift certificate for treatment services

We are also grateful for the support of our event sponsors:

•  A special thank you to Amy Harper, Primera Specialty Infusion – Hole Sponsor

The YMCA is thankful for every business that has partnered with us to make this event a success. Their support not only increases visibility within the community but also directly impacts lives by ensuring these critical programs remain accessible to those who need them most.
