Construction companies teamed up to support veterans and their families at Rosendin’s 9th Annual Golf Tournament and Auction held May 23 at Pelican Hills Golf Club, Newport Beach. Construction professionals across California raised $375,000 for the Navy SEAL Foundation (NSF) through entry fees, sponsorships, and an auction. Since 2016, the tournament has collected over $3.5 million to support families of Navy SEALs and Special Warfare Combatant-Craft Crewmen (SWCCs).
“We are especially grateful to David Lincoln and the entire Rosendin Electric family for their steadfast dedication and generosity in supporting NSF and the NSW community,” said Robin King, CEO of the Navy SEAL Foundation. “The annual Rosendin Golf Fundraiser continues to be one of our favorite events, providing critical programs and services to the warriors and families through their support of the Foundation. Thank you to all who participated, volunteered, and sponsored.”
“Thanks to the collaborative efforts of Rosendin’s partners and sponsors, we exceeded our fundraising goals to support NSF and the veterans and families it serves,” said David Lincoln, Senior Vice President of Rosendin and NSF Ambassador. “We work with many veterans who have found successful career paths at Rosendin and are proud to continue organizing efforts that will significantly impact the communities we serve and work with daily.”
