Let's Tee off for a Good Cause

August 8^th, 2008

The Verizon Wireless GA/AL Region will host its 3rd benefit golf tournament on Saturday, October 11, 2008 starting at 1:00pm (shotgun start) at the Hampton Golf Village (www.hamptongolfvillage.net) in Cumming, GA to benefit TEAMS@Work. Through the dedicated support of our sponsors and players, we were able to raise more than $50,000 to support their programs in last year’s tournament.

TEAMS@Work (Transition Employment Advocacy & Mentoring Services) is a non-profit agency serving Metro Atlanta with a mission to provide productive and meaningful work and community integration opportunities to persons with disabilities in a supported environment. Their vision is to reduce the number of persons with disabilities who are not productively working and/or actively participating in their communities.

We invite you and your company to be part of this exciting charity event as a tournament sponsor. Sponsorship options are outlined in Attachment A. Sponsorship is voluntary and will not influence your company’s business relationship with Verizon Wireless.

Sponsors are also invited to participate in the pre-tournament mixer on Friday Evening, October 10, where there will be ample opportunity to network with VZW golfers & non-golfers alike. This event will be great fun for those who do not play the game as well. We can certainly use help with the setup, picture taking and other areas not related to play.

Please book early, as we will be limited to the number of participants.

We look forward to your support and participation.

If you have any questions please contact Donna Maikranz @678-277-3502 or Lynn Carlson @678-277-3501.
