The Charity Golf Classic, hosted on Friday, April 28 at McCormick Ranch Golf Club, raised funds for local charitable programs throughout Arizona. Charities benefitting from the Golf Classic include Phoenix Children’s Hospital, PANDA, Military Assistance Mission, Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale, Amanda Hope Rainbow Angels, Fiesta Bowl Wishes for Teachers and more. 

“Lerner & Rowe Gives Back has a similar philosophy to the Fiesta Bowl Organization,” said Jose Moreno, Chief Marketing Officer at The Fiesta Bowl. “Our commitment to the community is the backbone of our mission. We feel extremely grateful to have continuous support from the Lerner & Rowe Gives Back Team. Our Wishes for Teachers charity donates $1 million annually to teachers across Arizona and would not be possible without their generous donations.”
