FRISCO, Texas, Oct. 29, 2024 ~ The US LBM Foundation, the charitable nonprofit organization of US LBM, has once again demonstrated its commitment to giving back to communities across the country. On October 22nd, the foundation hosted its eighth annual charity golf tournament at the Omni PGA Frisco outside of Dallas. The event was a huge success, raising over $2.75 million for various charitable organizations.

One of the main beneficiaries of this year's tournament is the Gary Sinise Foundation's R.I.S.E. (Restoring Independence Supporting Empowerment) program. This program builds specially adapted smart homes for severely wounded veterans. In attendance at the event were three recipients of R.I.S.E homes: retired U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant Nick Kimmel, retired U.S. Army Captain Jake Murphy, and retired U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Patrick Scrogin. Scrogin's R.I.S.E home outside of Chicago was built earlier this year with support from US LBM and the US LBM Foundation.

In addition to supporting veterans, funds raised by the golf tournament will also benefit other organizations such as the United Heroes League, which provides children of military service members access to youth sports; the David Foster Foundation, which promotes and supports organ donation for children in need; and Team Rubicon, which provides disaster response aid to communities impacted by natural disasters.
