Fremont, CA, July 17, 2020
Two months after Nationwide Boiler’s originally scheduled 40th Annual Charity Golf Tournament, the company has announced that they will be making a monetary donation to Make-A-Wish® Greater Bay Area. For 39 years Nationwide Boiler has coordinated and hosted this fundraiser to give back to charitable organizations, and this year the company was forced to postpone the event due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nationwide Boiler has made the financial decision to present an outright donation of $10,000 to one of the two organizations that would typically benefit from the event. In addition, three companies who had already committed to a sponsorship, Alzeta, GT Wilkinson and DJ Conley, chose to allocate their donation to the overall total, bringing the final endowment to $12,000.
“As a company, we are fortunate enough to be able to continue to give back in an unprecedented time like this,” stated Larry Day, President & CEO of Nationwide Boiler Inc. “Non-profits are really hurting as a result of the pandemic, with many annual fundraisers being cancelled or postponed. Furthermore, Make-A-Wish® Greater Bay Area has had the painful task of communicating to families that more than 80 wishes are on hold until it is safe to grant them. We feel it’s only right to continue our support of organizations like these, as long as we have the resources to do so.”
Nationwide Boiler is now scheduled to host their 40th Annual Charity Golf Tournament on May 5-6, 2021, just one year behind schedule. The tournament will take place at the Pebble Beach Golf Links, and all funds raised will support Make-A-Wish® Greater Bay Area and the ABMA Scholarship Fund.
Make-A-Wish® Greater Bay Area is a non-profit organization founded in 1984 and is one of the largest chapters nationwide. Last year, the organization celebrated their 35th Anniversary and granted more than 350 life-changing wishes for local children with critical illnesses. For more information on the organization, or to make a donation, visit www.sf.wish.org.
With headquarters in Fremont, CA and sales representatives worldwide, Nationwide Boiler Inc. has supplied temporary and permanent boiler solutions to industrial companies for over 53 years. This year would have marked the company’s 40th year hosting their annual charity golf tournament. Nationwide Boiler supports their community in other various ways, including food and clothing drives, participation in community events, and miscellaneous donations to other charitable organizations throughout each year.
