External Events Spotlight

Andrew Robb Family of Companies

When the pandemic forced the cancellation of the annual Pitchin’ for Wishes cornhole tournament, the Andrew Roby team quickly shifted to a new, socially distanced fundraiser – Walkin’ for Wishes. The Roby team hit the streets for a 28 mile relay around Charlotte! With stops at local subcontracting partners, business partners, and even the Make-A-Wish house, the Roby Family of Companies got their steps in and raised over $85,000 for our chapter at a time when funding was crucial.

Quility

The Quility team always put clients and community first. When COVID-19 altered the normal plan for the Quility Challenge 5k and Dodgeball tournament in Swannanoa, Whit Zeh and the fantastic Quility Community Relations team shifted to a virtual campfire gala. Over 1,000 agents tuned in and participated in the program, which included live musical performances by the Quility leadership team, a live and silent auction, and also a Fund-A-Wish program. All in all the team raised over $260,000 for Make-AWish and helped provide funding for 43 wishes.
