Successful Fundraising Effort: Supporting Forrest High School Golf Team
At Laid Back Landscaping, we believe in giving back to our community and supporting local initiatives. Recently, our team undertook a fundraising effort that aimed to alleviate the financial burden on the student-athletes of the Forrest High School Golf Team. We're excited to share the heartwarming outcome of this endeavor, highlighting the impact of community support and the dedication of our team to making a difference.
Uniting for a Common Cause
It all began when Coach Andy Burkett shared a concerning post about the rising costs that local high school athletes were facing to practice at the nearby golf course. Determined to make a positive change, Laid Back Landscaping's owner, Sean Deckert, took the initiative and proposed a fundraising idea that would directly benefit the Forrest High School Golf Team.
The Maple Tree Fundraiser
Laid Back’s plan to help students involved selling maple trees, perfectly sized for any yard, at a price of $25 each. Every dollar generated from these tree sales was pledged to go towards supporting the Rocket Golf team. The goal was not just to raise funds, but to help the student-athletes focus more on honing their golf skills and less on financial constraints.
A Heartwarming Outcome
The response to the Maple Tree Fundraiser was overwhelming. The community rallied together, showing their support for the local golf team. Laid Back Landscaping successfully sold numerous trees, with every single sale contributing to the cause. Through this collective effort, a remarkable sum of $2150 was raised.
Presenting the Contribution
The culmination of this initiative was a heartwarming moment as Laid Back Landscaping had the privilege of presenting Coach Andy Burkett with a check for $2150. The support generated by the Chapel Hill community, combined with the dedication of our team, showcased the positive impact that can be achieved when like-minded individuals come together for a common cause.
Conclusion:
At Laid Back Landscaping, we're more than just a landscaping company - we're a part of the Chapel Hill community. Our recent fundraising effort for the Forrest High School Golf Team reflects our commitment to supporting local initiatives that benefit the youth and foster a strong sense of community. This experience has reinforced our belief in the power of collective action and community support. We're proud to have made a meaningful difference and look forward to continuing our efforts in the future.
