Lanier Partners of North Georgia presented Boys & Girls Clubs of Lanier with $20,000 in proceeds from last year’s Pirates of Lanier Charity Poker Run.

The group hosts the poker run annually to support local nonprofit organizations. Steven Mickens, Boys & Girls Clubs of Lanier CEO said, “The Lanier Partners Charity Poker Run is a wonderful way to help our kids. We are very grateful to Lanier Partners and their community partners for their support.” Lanier Partners President, Dale Ozaki, and his wife, Jessica, visited the Joseph F. Walters Club to see first-hand the impact of Lanier Partners’ continued support of the clubs that began almost a decade ago. Since 2013, Lanier Partners has donated over $370,000 to support the club’s mission: “To inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.”
