The Friends of Costco Guild, led by Jan Sinegal and Lynn Winters, raised $7M for Seattle Children’s Hospital at the 13th annual Children’s Golf Classic heald last month in Seattle, WA. This three-day event consistently raises the most money of any event benefitting Children’s.
Greek owned Earth Friendly Products, a leader in manufacturing award-winning eco-friendly cleaning products, stepped up to the plate, joining with the Friends of Costco Guild, as a Title Sponsor of the Children’s Classic Golf Tournament, to deliver meaningful support for the critical work performed by the doctors, nurses and staff of Seattle Children’s Hospital.
“We are honored to be able to contribute to such a worthy cause,” said Cindee Hyde, Vice President of Sales at Earth Friendly Products. “The network is actually using the money raised through the tournament to save the lives of children who fight every day for a chance to grow up.” Ms. Hyde noted that Seattle Children’s Hospital is the only medical center specifically designed to provide pediatric medical services for the states of Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho.
“I am so excited! The journey of this event is one of a kind. The support and friendships that have been created are amazing. The generosity of our sponsors, guests and volunteers is an incredible gift to the children and families of our region,” said Jan Sinegal, Children’s Golf Classic Chair.
“Earth Friendly Products is delighted to have played a part in the Golf Classic, an annual event that is so vital to continuing the uncompensated care for thousands of children each year at Seattle Children’s,” said Earth Friendly Vice President Kelly Vlahakis-Hanks.
Earth Friendly Products has been dedicated to manufacturing household cleaning products made of all-natural ingredients and are free of harsh, toxic chemicals that are hazardous, especially to children’s health. Family health and safety are key components in the formulation of all Earth Friendly Products. The company was one of the first to eliminate 1,4 Dioxane, a known carcinogen, in all of their household products that are sold internationally. More than 60 household products are available without ammonia, alkyl phenol, phosphates and sulfates. The manufacturing of each Earth Friendly Product follows the company’s strict Freedom Code, which pledges the elimination of more than 30 substances that are commonly found in household products and research has found to be toxic and harmful. The sponsorship and donation to Seattle Children’s Hospital is one more step Earth Friendly Products is making toward bettering children’s health.
