United Way of Tarrant County received a $10,000 donation from the Texas-based grocery chain United Family.
“Even under very unique and challenging circumstances, we were able to pull off something pretty special this year,” Matt Corbin, marketing director for the United Family and chairman of the Jacky Pierce Charity Classic, said in a release posted on the United Family website. “The tenacity of this organization and their vendor partners to roll up their sleeves and ensure the United Way agencies depending on them.”
The United Family website states the $10,000 donation for United Way of Tarrant County is part of $500,000 raised this year for United Way chapters across Texas and New Mexico. The donations are usually raised during the annual golf tournament, which was canceled this year due to COVID-19.
“The (fund-raising) went on – even without the golf,” Corbin said.
