Now in its 15th year, Rutter’s golf event helps children in need.
Rutter’s is again giving back to local charity organizations.
Rutter’s Children’s Charities raised over $175,000 for Central Pennsylvania charities at its 15th annual golf outing, the company announced.
Since its beginning in 2002, the two-day golf outing has raised over $1.72 million for children’s charities in Central Pennsylvania. This year’s outing was held at the Out Door Country Club of York and featured several of Rutter’s key suppliers, executives, and family members. The outing was the most successful yet, and the golf monies will fund $100,000 for the 2017 Rutter’s Vote with Your Dollars and Rutters Rewards Schools.
2016’s recipients of $25,000 each for Vote With Your Dollars was Leg Up Farm, Make-A-Wish Greater PA & WV, and York County Food Bank. The Rutters Rewards Schools and Vote with Your Dollars programs enable customers to login to their Rutter’s Rewards accounts to choose from a list of charities and schools they wish to support. Every dollar spent at the pumps or inside any Rutter’s store with a registered Rutter’s Rewards card counts as a vote towards the customers’ selected charitable organization.
“Working with our key partners to help raise money to support local charities and schools through our annual golf outing is a true passion. We generated strong support that will allow us to continue to deliver a positive impact on our local communities, this is what Rutter’s Children’s Charities is all about,” said Scott Hartman, Rutter’s CEO and president.
