A few months ago we launched a new category for the website called “Above & Beyond in Northwest Arkansas.” This category features stories about local companies doing extraordinary things for our corner of the state.
As mothers, we know loyalty counts so we pay attention to companies who are loyal to customers and the communities in which they do business. This month we’re shining a light on the millions of dollars Harps has raised for area non-profit organizations through their charity golf tournaments. The company has donated more than $2.4 million dollars to more than 550 charities located in the communities in which they operate.
Here’s the LONG list of charity organizations, schools and churches Harps has helped over the past 20 years.
