Charlie’s Angels raise over $10,000 for local SPCA in annual golf tournament

“Mark’s 9 would always run a lady’s tournament and they decided to switch the lady’s tournament into a fundraiser for the SPCA,” Pillipow said.

Every year they try to grow the event and succeeded raising $23,485 in 2017 and $20,684 in 2019. This year, however, was more challenging due to the pandemic.

“COVID was a hard year,” she said. “It was debatable to run it and Wendy said we need to do something for the SPCA and with COVID it was tough, but I think we still did fantastic.”

They had 36 people come out, which is half of the participants they usually have, to participate in the tournament and collected multiple donations from the community.

SPCA Manager Ashlee Bober said it is incredible to receive the financial help from the Charlie’s Angels every year.

“It’s something that having this income significantly helps us with the [animals] who are in desperate need,” she told paNOW. “For example, if we have ones that need amputations, have injuries or cats in wintertime that have frozen ears that maybe have to get surgery to get them removed.

“It allows us to be able to help them because it is all very costly and every little bit [of] the help we get from the Charlie’s Angels significantly helps towards going to help them medically as well as just the overall care of the animals,” Bober added.

The SPCA also received numerous supplies such as dog and cat food from the Charlie’s Angels.
