Earlier this week, Team RSM Member
Chris
DiMarco shared an incredible fact: “Since 2012,
golf as a fundraising vehicle has raised nearly $20 billion for charity.” Talk about an honorable feat! This
is one of the main reasons our firm, RSM US LLP (“RSM”),
chose to align with golf by serving as title sponsor of The RSM Classic, an
official PGA TOUR event, in 2010. The game of golf and RSM share similar values
(respect, integrity, excellence, teamwork and stewardship) and the philosophy
that – whether in the boardroom or on the golf course – the power of any
relationship comes through understanding. Since its inception, The RSM Classic has
raised more than $7 million for nonprofit organizations!
Charitable contributions
raised through The RSM Classic are distributed by the Davis
Love Foundation (DLF), which was established in 2005 by professional golfer
and Team RSM Member Davis
Love III and his wife Robin. The DLF contributes to the wellbeing and
progress of society by supporting both national and community-based programs
that focus on children and families. Its mission is to help build a better
future for families and children who are at risk of poor educational economic,
social and health outcomes. Read about the contributions
from last year’s tournament.
While no members of Team RSM
are hitting the greens this week, we do have some friends we’ll be cheering on:
past RSM Classic winners Ben Crane (2011),
Chris Kirk (2013),
Robert Streb (2014),
Kevin Kisner (2015)
and Mackenzie Hughes (2016)
are all playing in the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Below were their tee
times for today (Thurs., April 27). Best of luck this weekend to each of them!
