Miller Industries Teams Up with Marietta Wrecker Service to Donate $10,000
ON MAY 21, 2024, MILLER INDUSTRIES TOWING Equipment Inc. announced the winner of the Survivor Fund Golf Classic “Closest to Pin” contest prize. This year’s Closest to Pin winner is Josh Bequette from US Fleet Tracking. What is special about this year’s prize is that Miller Industries and Marietta Wrecker Service have teamed up to donate $5,000 to the Survivor Fund in the winner’s (Mr. Bequette’s) name.
Miller Industries has always been a large supporter of the Survivor Fund and the annual Golf Classic, which is held in Orlando, Florida. The Survivor Fund helps provide funding to the surviving families of tow operators who have fallen in the line of duty, and the annual golf event helps raise money for the fund. This year Miller Industries sponsored the Closest to Pin contest with a prize of $5,000 to be donated to the fund on behalf of the winner. When Steve Welchel of Marietta Wrecker Service in Marietta, Georgia, heard about this, he knew they could help even more.
The Welchel family and Marietta Wrecker Service have also been longtime supporters of the Survivor Fund. “We wanted to help, so I asked Miller Industries if we could match their donation and help provide greater funding for the families of those lost in tragedy to the towing and recovery industry. The money raised goes a long way to help families cover unforeseen costs as they deal with their loss,” said Welchel.
Their matching sponsorship brought the donation total up to $10,000 for the Survivor Fund. Miller Industries and Marietta Wrecker Service extend their heartfelt appreciation to all those that participated in and supported the annual Survivor Fund Golf Classic.
