One of the charitable components
of The RSM Classic is Birdies
Fore Love (BFL). Through BFL, thousands
of RSM partners, employees, clients and friends donated to charitable
organizations in 86 cities nationwide. With a match from the RSM
US Foundation, we raised $1.5 million for
deserving nonprofit organizations this year, bringing the total raised through
the tournament to nearly $7 million to date! (We’ll share the “real” grand
total raised through the tournament after the first of the year, when ALL donations
have been tallied.) An addition to the tournament’s fundraising efforts this
year was a $10,000 check presentation from the RSM US Foundation to Folds
of Honor, a nonprofit which provides educational scholarships to the
children and spouses of those killed or disabled while serving our nation. We
are proud to support those served by Folds of Honor.

“He
is Sea Island golf. But he’s shown much more than that for this community,”
said good friend and fellow major champion Zach Johnson of the community known
as the Golden Isles that stretches 100 miles along the Atlantic coast and
includes barrier islands of Sea, St. Simons, Little St. Simons Island and
Jekyll, as well as the mainland port of Brunswick.
“He’s
a Hall of Fame guy in every sense, on and off the golf course,” Johnson added.
“His résumé speaks for itself. But he’s more than a résumé.”
Quite an endorsement from a friend and fellow Sea Island resident! We’re proud that both Zach and Davis are members of Team RSM, along with Chris DiMarco, Paul Lawrie and Andy Sullivan.
Be sure to stop by next week to learn the latest on The RSM Classic and Team RSM. While next year’s tournament is a good way off (Nov. 13 – Nov. 19, 2017), we’ll continue to post weekly updates every Thursday.
