What a day. What a community. What a purpose. 🤍⛳️

Despite the cold temperatures, the 5th Annual PAR PT Charity Golf Tournament was filled with warmth, laughter, competition, and overwhelming generosity. Because of YOU — our incredible players, sponsors, businesses who donated prizes, our amazing breakfast sponsor Bojangles, our delicious lunch sponsor Mission BBQ, our dedicated employees, and our supportive families — we made this our most successful tournament to date.

This year, together, we raised $24,000 for the R**e Crisis Center of Horry & Georgetown Counties.

The RCC’s mission is to provide comprehensive crisis intervention, advocacy, and counseling services to survivors of sexual assault and their families, while working to reduce sexual violence through community education, outreach, and prevention. As a nonprofit, they strive to foster a safe community that empowers survivors to heal and thrive.

As Chair-Elect of the Board of Directors for the RCC, this mission holds a deeply meaningful purpose for PAR PT Owner, Casey Garavito, and for our entire PAR staff. This cause is personal. It matters. And because of our PAR PT family and our loyal community, we were able to make a true impact.

We are beyond grateful for every sponsorship, every donated prize, every team that braved the cold, every early morning setup, every shared post, every hug, every prayer, and every dollar given.

Thank you for believing in this mission.
Thank you for standing with survivors.
Thank you for showing up — in a big way.
