Teeing Off for kidsLINK

RECORD. BROKEN. A Tournament to Remember – and a Community that Showed Up Big.

The 8th Annual Williams Charitable Golf Tournament wasn’t just a good time, it was a powerful reminder of what happens when people come together with purpose (and maybe a little competitive spirit).

What started as a small way to bring together friends and partners has grown into a powerful tradition of generosity. This year’s event delivered on every front—sunshine, spirited sponsor tents, plenty of laughs, and a whole lot of heart.

And the impact? Huge.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of sponsors, players, prize donors, and volunteers, this year’s tournament generated over $90,000 in charitable impact, including generous in-kind contributions. Nearly $60,000 in direct financial support is now fueling Greater Gallatin United Way’s kidsLINK out-of-school programs—helping more than 1,000 local children access safe, enriching care during the critical hours after school and throughout school breaks.

“This tournament is one of the most meaningful things we do all year,” said Chelsea, Tournament Director for the Williams Foundation. “It brings our team, partners, and community together for a cause that’s bigger than all of us. Giving back is part of who we are as a company, and supporting kidsLINK allows us to make a direct impact on local families. That’s something we’re incredibly proud of.”

Since its inception, the Williams Charitable Golf Tournament has raised nearly $265,000 for local nonprofits, a powerful milestone made possible by the unwavering support of sponsors, players, and volunteers.

This year marked an exciting new chapter with the official launch of the Williams Foundation, the charitable arm of Williams Plumbing and Williams Civil Construction. Created to serve the communities where their employees live and work, the Foundation will carry this spirit of giving forward year-round through grants, volunteerism, and mission-driven partnerships that reflect the company’s values.

Greater Gallatin United Way is proud to partner with a company that not only believes in community but actively builds it. Whether you were swinging for the green, cheering from the sidelines, or working behind the scenes, you were part of something bigger, and it made a difference.

Thank you. Your generosity is helping create a stronger, more connected community—one swing, one child, and one family at a time.

United is the Way to a thriving community for all.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Greater Gallatin United Way this year,” Chelsea added. “Supporting kidsLINK means investing in families, education, and the future of our community—and we’re so grateful to everyone who joined us to make this year’s tournament such a success.”
