When the Rotary Club’s golf committee first named +Works as beneficiary last year, it was the beginning of a relationship that would grow beyond that one mere act of support.

Says club President Wally Kronzer: “You make a bigger impact for the charity if you can partner for multiple years. [Golf Committee chairs] Bob Geary and Geoff Lanceley loved working with them, and the club and foundation supported their selection. They realized that partnering again with Positive Works would enhance the golf tournament’s community impact.”

Fisher and Morille were surprised by the announcement. “We are delighted and honored to be selected as the 2014 golf tournament beneficiary, “ said Fisher. “Working with West U Rotary on the 2013 event was a highlight of our year, and we look forward to getting the +Ball rolling once again.”

“We are very grateful to West U Rotary for their continued support,” said Morille. “Funds raised will enable +Works to expand our grassroots program in and beyond Houston and to showcase the tremendous work taking place with students in our +Community of schools.”

Currently +Works (Positive Works) has programs in 11 area schools with requests for help coming from parents all across the country. While bullying is the problem they seek to address, +Works is not about being a victim. As the name implies, it is about helping youth find their voice to speak up and speak out, moving from being a bystander to an upstander. Their programs include +School, +Playground, +Car, +Computer, and every other location where interactions occur.

The April 21 tournament, which uses a four-player Florida scramble format, begins with registration and lunch at 11:30 a.m., followed by a putting contest. The shotgun start is at 1 p.m., and the tournament concludes with awards, hors d’oeuvres and door prizes. Hole sponsorships and player slots are still available.
