Our chapter has a great history of performing meaningful service to our community...here is a sample of our recent contributions.  Thank you all!

2025

• Transformation Village - Our president, Terri Clark, had the pleasure of presenting our Chapter’s $3100 donation check to Reverend Scott Rogers, ABCCM Executive Director in October. Our Chapter supports Transformation Village (TrV), a women’s and children’s shelter in Asheville, through donations and members who volunteer there. Thanks to all our participants for your generosity! More information about Transformation Village can be found here.

• Manna Food Bank - Ten of our chapter members (and one son!) volunteered to work either a morning or evening shift at the Manna Food Bank on 9/24.  It was especially compelling to help out this year as the original MANNA location in east Asheville was completely destroyed last year by the devastating floods associated with Hurricane Helene. Our group enjoyed working together for this great organization that is working to eliminate food insecurity throughout the 16 counties of Western NC. More information about the Manna Food Bank can be found here.  

• Play for Pink - We donated $1800 to Play for P.I.N.K. (breast cancer research) on our annual Play for Pink League night.   More information about Play for Pink can be found here.

• Eblen Charities - On August 5 our league chapter donated 235 backpacks to school children in the greater Asheville area.  They were very happy to receive our donation!  Our past president Cheri Kenyon participated in the distribution and saw the happy faces of the children who received them. Thanks to all of you who contributed.  Over the past 2 years our chapter has donated 376 backpacks to the children in the Asheville area!   More information about Eblen Charities can be found here.

• Transformation Village - Several members of our Chapter were honored to attend the opening of the shade structure at Transformation Village on June 25th. Our Chapter was a significant contributor to this project and our member, Teresa Lee, led the effort to make it happen.  Cornerstone Building Brands was proud to be able to provide a donated structure, a 21’ x 155’ open structure for the women and children to gather, play, etc. This is an upgrade to the existing facility as there was no place outside to be in the shade prior to this project. After weathering Helene, navigating the permitting process, and rallying volunteers to bring it all together, they finally had their open house ceremony on Wednesday, June 25th. The kids that live there were so excited and there was chalk art all over the sidewalk.  Thanks to all our participants for your generosity! More information about Transformation Village can be found here.

2024

• Donation to BeLoved Asheville - A $2,000 donation was made by our chapter in late October to fund the Helene relief efforts that this organization is doing for our community.  More information about BeLoved Asheville can be found here.  
  
• Charity Golf Tournament for Transformation Village - Our league hosted 68 members and guests on September 8 at our home course for our annual Member Guest Tournament.  On a beautiful September afternoon the participants generously donated funds for the Putting Contest, Mulligans, and Raffle, and purchased over 15 items in our Silent Auction.  As a result, on 10/29 8 members of our league attended a ceremony to present Transformation Village with a check for $6500.  Thanks to all our participants for your generosity! More information about Transformation Village can be found here.

• Manna Foodbank - Fifteen energetic members of our league donated their morning on August 26 at Manna Foodbank.  They sorted through many stacks of bread and culled many cases of zucchini, all important tasks to help others in need.  More information about the Manna Food Bank can be found here. 

• Manna Food Bank - On July 9 our league chapter donated over 100 non-perishable food items to the Manna Food Bank, adding to the over 300 items donated during the 2023 season.  Thanks to all of you for your generosity to help end food insecurity in the Asheville Area.  More information about the Manna Food Bank can be found here.  We will also be gathering as a team on August 26 to volunteer our time on one of the shifts in the warehouse.

• Well Played - Members enjoyed a fun night off the golf course at Well Played in Asheville. Well Played is a unique business offering over 700 board games and serving adult beverages and a nice selection of meals and snacks. We should definitely make this an annual social event!

• Llama Golf -Our chapter had a blast playing a round of golf with llama caddies!

• Axe Throwing  - 2/25 - We had a great time at Axeville. It is reported that no one was injured!

• Get Together for Putt-Putt and Laughs - Our 1st mid-season social at Salt Face Mule in Weaverville on July 28.  The rain couldn't dampen our fun time together!
