Save The Date for the 15th Annual DW Golf Tournament to be held on October 9, 2014.
In 1998, three Allegacy employees were diagnosed with breast cancer and at about the same time the CEO and President lost a close friend to ovarian cancer. The following year, Allegacy decided to host a golf tournament in an effort to increase awareness of the importance of early detection of these cancers and raise funds to support Cancer Services, Inc. The primary way to battle breast and ovarian cancers is through early detection, thus the tournament was named “DW” which stands for “Don’t Wait”. Fifteen years later, many of our active and retired employees, their family members and friends, and credit union members continue to be touched in some way by these cancers. We have seen first-hand, the battles that these ladies endured; many have survived the battle, yet some have not.
