Valiant Announces Inaugural Valiant Charity Golf Classic

Valiant Integrated Services and The Valiant Foundation (also referred to as “the Foundation”) are excited to announce the inaugural Valiant Charity Golf Classic, which will be held on Oct. 27, 2022 at Lansdowne Golf Resort in Leesburg, Va., with a Pairings Party and Executive Cocktail Party to precede the event on Oct. 26. The Golf Classic will benefit the Valiant Foundation, a 501 (c) (3) which was founded in 2019 to provide financial support to veterans- and disaster relief-focused charitable agencies. All proceeds of the tournament will benefit the Foundation and these deserving causes.

“We’re looking forward to hosting the first annual Valiant Charity Golf Classic and spending a great day on the golf course for a good cause,” Greg Foley, Valiant’s Vice President of Contracts and Executive Sponsor of the event, said. “In addition to the standard trophies and awards, we’ll also have a hole-in-one contest with a chance to win a new car, contests to win up to $5,000 cash, and a Pairings Party the evening before. This is a great way to give back, and we’re excited to support the Foundation and these important causes.”
