IRVING, Texas & GREENVILLE, S.C. -- (Business Wire)
Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) today marked the 25-year anniversary of
its Golf for Greenville charitable golf tournament that has raised more
than $3.5 million to assist local community organizations.
Today’s event at Fluor’s Greenville, S.C., campus included
representatives from the local charitable organizations that have
benefitted from the golf tournament over the past 25 years along with
Fluor executives and local elected officials.
Golf for Greenville was developed and founded by Fluor employee
volunteers in 1989 with the first tournament held in 1990. Countless
volunteer hours go into organizing the tournament and soliciting
donations. Recently, Golf for Greenville events have had overwhelming
support from Fluor employees and suppliers and frequently include
sell-out tournaments. The record turnouts have encouraged Fluor to raise
its fundraising goals each year as support continues to grow. The event
is chaired and co-chaired by Fluor professionals as a leadership
enrichment opportunity for those employees.
