Synergy Design & Construction Gives Back to Local Community
Reston, VA (PRWEB) July 25, 2013 -- For the second year in a row, Synergy Design and Construction of Reston, VA, was proud to be a sponsor of the 9th Annual Gold Tournament in support of the Special Olympics and Down Syndrome Association of Northern Virginia (DSANV). Principals Mark and Mina Fies, both avid golfers, have participated in the tournament for the past four years, and are excited to continue their commitment to the two area foundations.
The Special Olympics of Northern Virginia is a non-profit organization focused on improving the lives of people with intellectual disabilities through sports. The organization’s programs and volunteers impact the lives of individuals by helping them to develop social skills and increase self-esteem. The Down Syndrome Association of Northern Virginia was created to provide resources, education, and support to families, and to increase awareness of the capabilities and contributions of individuals with Down syndrome. Charitable support provided to families and individuals in the community by the DSANV includes everything from financial and medical help, to legal and social resources.
“Volunteering our time and sponsoring this event are fun and rewarding ways to give back to such fantastic organizations,” says Mark Fies. Mr. Fies has volunteered his time as the event’s treasurer and coaching golf to our area’s athletes during the spring and fall programs. “Our participation provides a way to give back to our local community and its Special Olympics athletes.”
The 9th Annual Golf Tournament, the largest fundraiser for the year for the two foundations, was held at the Springfield Golf and Country Club in Springfield, Virginia, on the rain date of Monday, July 22nd. The event included lunch, an awards ceremony, a silent auction, and dinner, and was attended by over 110 participants, raising over $50,000 for the two charities.
