After a year of virtual fundraising, it has been refreshing to have the opportunity to host in-person events again. Our MAA teams had a great turnout of community engagement at the events hosted in their divisions this year! Even with in-person events back in full swing, we’re still successfully utilizing virtual events and fundraising opportunities, like the silent auction in the North Division. Below are a few stories from the field by some of our dedicated associates who helped put on our fundraising events! West Division Golf Tournament “The West Division hosted their annual golf tournament benefiting Open Arms on September 9 at Bear Creek Golf Club in Dallas, TX. This event has grown each year with no exception to 2021. We had a wonderful turnout of 162 golfers! The golfers enjoyed a fun day on the course complete with goodie bags, good food, trophies and so many prizes. We love hosting this event as it allows us to connect with our vendors and give back in such an amazing way. We exceeded our goal for this year and were able to raise $105,000 for Open Arms! Planning this event year after year is such an honor, and we look forward to keeping it going for many years to come!” - Ashlee Sanders, Divisional Assistant in the West Division

DC/MD/VA Topgolf Event “The East Division chose to do our event at Topgolf because it is a fun atmosphere and not as intimidating as an 18-hole golf tournament. Throughout the event, everyone had the opportunity to hang out, eat and ultimately have a fun time while raising money for Open Armsv. Friday nights are ideal for most people to plan an outing with friends. As I walked around and took pictures during the event, I saw what an amazing time people were having. That is what makes all the hard work worth it in the end!” - Lori Hatfield, Property Manager at Apartments at Cobblestone Square
