Maruyama Sponsors Charity Event

A green industry manufacturer recently reached out to the Massachusetts community by sponsoring an event that raised more than $8,000 for a local charity.

Maruyama U.S., Inc helped sponsor the 2003 Grafton Hill Open Charity Golf Tournament on May 31.  The company’s support included the sponsorship of a hole and the donation of a BCGX22 brush cutter.  The event, run by the Grafton Hillers Association, raised money to benefit Friendly House in Worcester, MA.

Friendly House is a multi-service community center/settlement house, which provides a number of services for the low- to moderate-income residents throughout Worcester County. These include recreational drop-in programs for children and teens, residential shelters, a supportive housing program, social and emergency services, full-summer recreation and day-camp programs, child feeding and an information referral center. Friendly House serves more than 1,200 meals to needy children every day.

Maruyama manufactures professional outdoor power tools, sprayers and agricultural equipment.  The company’s products are specifically designed for commercial applications and extreme conditions.
