Making a Difference: Colliers International – Las Vegas & Links for Life Foundation
Golfing is a way of life for many residents of Las Vegas, but it’s also a fantastic way to raise money for a good cause. That’s exactly what commercial real estate company Colliers International – Las Vegas did this past May when they hosted their 17th Annual Links for Life golf tournament to help benefit various local children’s charities.
Held at the Las Vegas Country Club golf course, the theme of this year’s tournament was “Old Vegas, Baby!” Approximately 130 “goodfellas” took to the course to help raise money for the Links for Life Foundation, the nonprofit giving project of Colliers International, which supports various children’s charities in Southern Nevada. All told, the tournament raised $54,000, just a part of the more than $2 million raised for regional charities by the Links for Life tournament since its inception in 1993. Local organizations such as Three Square Food Bank, Candlelighters, St. Jude’s Ranch for Children, Aid for AIDS of Nevada and many more have all benefitted from the generosity of the Links for Life Foundation.
“The Links for Life golf tournament has become one of Southern Nevada’s most anticipated charity events,” said Mike Mixer, managing partner of Colliers International – Las Vegas. “The proceeds from this year’s tournament will help us continue our ongoing support to various children’s charities throughout the valley.”
