ARC of Erie County – An organization supporting individuals with disabilities, along with their families, in achieving their desired quality of life. Ingram Micro’s donation will be used to make improvements to a walking path and to purchase a digital sign.

“Ingram Micro’s East Coast Golf Tournament is always a great opportunity for our team to make a significant impact locally, and it wouldn’t be possible without the ongoing energy and efforts of our associates, volunteers, vendor sponsors, and our local community partners,” said John Fago, a Buffalo native and the Executive Director of Global Partner Engagement for Ingram Micro. “This year marks the 24th anniversary for our annual tournament, and we’re so proud to have the opportunity to give back to our community in such a meaningful way.”
