Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits: Champions of Educational Scholarships

September 13, 2024

It was a hole-in-one kind of day at this year’s Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits Golf Tournament! As the beneficiary of their annual golfing event, College Success Foundation was once again awed by the generosity of the sponsors and golfers who made this such a fun and successful event.

This year’s tournament raised an impressive $106,500 for CSF Scholars. To date, the event has generated nearly $800,000 to fund scholarships for nineteen CSF scholars and counting.

The high-energy, day-long event buzzed with music, refreshments and opening remarks from Ryan Lumaco, Executive Vice President and General Manager of SGWS; Brandon High, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Coastal Pacific Wine & Spirits; and James Dorsey, President & CEO of the College Success Foundation. The evening capped off with a reception featuring raffles, golfer prizes and a celebration of the scholarship funds raised.

Since its inception in 2018, the annual golf tournament has been driven by Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits commitment to supporting educational scholarships for low-income, first-generation college students in Washington state.

A big thank you goes out to our Executive Level sponsors Beam Suntory, Heaven Hill, Pernod Ricard, and Ste Michelle Wine Estates for their generosity in supporting this year’s event.

And we tip our hats to the SGWS staff — your support of our mission over the years is truly appreciated. Thank you!
