Rainy weather did not stop Helena Thornton, Chairperson of the Local 1725 Community Service Committee, members of the local and 55 golfers from participating enthusiastically in the Annual Local 1725 Golf Outing to benefit the Renaissance West STEAM Academy. The school’s mission seeks to “Through education, break cycles of intergenerational poverty in West Charlotte,” according to Amanda Golmont, the school’s Development Officer. Local 1725 adopted Renaissance West STEAM Academy two years ago and has held several fundraising events to support the school as part of their call to serve members and their communities.
