CROWN POINT — Northwest Indiana Business Roundtable’s annual golf outing raises over one thousand dollars for the Food Bank of NWI while bringing together local business.  The event united businesses on the golf course to network amongst NWI’s top professionals as well as raise money for a great cause.

The annual meet-and-greet golfing event gives NWIBRT the opportunity to raise money and awareness for non-profit organizations. This year the largest golf outing in the region drew over 300 golfers from a variety of Indiana’s premier companies and raised over one thousand dollars for the Food Bank of NWI.

“It was a tremendous day of networking NWI’s business scene while helping out a great cause like the Food Bank,” said Joe Coar of the Franciscan Alliance and President of NWIBRT. The event successfully raised over a thousand dollars for the Northwest Indiana Food Bank. Along with this heartfelt contribution, the grand prize of a truck donation to the Food Bank of NWI was graciously given in the name of a member from Manta Industries.
