West Des Moines, IA – Hubbell Realty Company has announced the 2025 Hubbell Extreme Charity Golf Classic, sponsored by Plumb Supply & Kohler Co., and the organizations who will benefit from the proceeds. This year, the Alzheimer’s Association Iowa Chapter, Easterseals Iowa and On With Life will split the proceeds earned at the double-shotgun golfing event being held on Thursday, August 21.
Each year, hundreds of trade partners, community members and associates come together for a full day of golf and good times at Woodland Hills Golf Course, Central Iowa’s #1 rated golf course.
"We are honored to be one of the nonprofits chosen to receive proceeds from the Hubbell Extreme Charity Golf Classic this year. The money raised for the Alzheimer's Association will help fund local resources like support groups, education programs and our 24/7 Helpline, our statewide advocacy efforts, as well as research to help find future treatments and ultimately a cure,” said Doug Bickford, Executive Director for the Alzheimer's Association Iowa Chapter.
"As past recipients, we are so thankful to be included in this years' organizations. Easterseals has big goals for our campus and summer programs to continue expanding to benefit Iowans who rely on our services. Thanks to events like this, we can make a lasting difference in the lives of over 3,000 Iowans each year by providing essential services to children and adults with disabilities and their families," said Sherri Nielsen, Executive Director, Easterseals Iowa.
“We are so fortunate to continue our wonderful partnership with Hubbell Realty Company,” said Jean Shelton, On With Life CEO. “Their commitment to our mission and the individuals we serve means the world to us. We are incredibly grateful to be a beneficiary of this special event and truly appreciate the generosity and heart behind it.”
