Corporate Fundraiser Raises More Than $64,000 to Support Hygiene Access

Scramble for Dignity Demonstrates the Power of a Corporate Fundraiser

When businesses invest in their communities, the impact extends far beyond the workplace. That was evident at the 6th Annual Scramble for Dignity, a corporate fundraiser hosted by Moonshot Solutions that brought together sponsors, golfers, and community supporters to help provide essential hygiene products to those in need.

Held on June 8 at Falcon Ridge Golf Club, this year’s event raised more than $64,000 for Giving the Basics. Those funds will help thousands of students, families, and seniors access hygiene products that are not covered by government assistance programs.

The event served as a powerful reminder that a corporate fundraiser can do more than raise money—it can bring people together around a shared mission and create lasting change in the community.

Why Corporate Fundraisers Matter

Across the country, businesses are looking for meaningful ways to engage employees, strengthen community relationships, and make a tangible difference. A corporate fundraiser provides an opportunity to do all three.

Whether through a golf tournament, workplace giving campaign, volunteer event, or product drive, corporate fundraisers allow companies to leverage their resources, networks, and influence to support important causes.

For Giving the Basics, partnerships with businesses are critical to addressing hygiene insecurity. Hygiene products such as shampoo, deodorant, soap, toothpaste, and feminine hygiene products are basic necessities, yet they cannot be purchased with SNAP or WIC benefits. As a result, many individuals and families are forced to choose between hygiene products and other essential expenses.

Corporate partners help bridge that gap.

A Day of Golf, Community, and Impact

The Scramble for Dignity brought together an incredible group of participants who spent the day networking, enjoying friendly competition, and supporting a cause that impacts thousands throughout the region.

The event was made possible through the leadership and dedication of Laura Sherman and the Moonshot Solutions team, whose commitment to the mission continues to inspire others to get involved.

Giving the Basics is also grateful for the generous sponsors who helped make the event possible:

• Moonshot Solutions
• Edelman and Thompson
• Cerris Systems
• Ross Family Foundation
• Kompass Kapital
• The Miller Group
• The Hartford / Stella Maris Family Office
• Hi-Genes Janitorial
• Crawford Sales Company

Their support demonstrates how businesses can work together to create meaningful community impact.

The Impact of Corporate Giving

Every dollar raised through this corporate fundraiser will help provide access to hygiene products for individuals who might otherwise go without.

For a student, that could mean having the confidence to attend school and participate in class. For a senior on a fixed income, it could mean not having to choose between purchasing medication or purchasing soap. For a family facing financial hardship, it could mean one less difficult decision during an already challenging time.

These everyday essentials may seem small, but their impact is profound.

Looking Ahead

The success of the Scramble for Dignity highlights what is possible when businesses, community leaders, and nonprofit organizations work together.

Giving the Basics extends its heartfelt thanks to Moonshot Solutions, all event sponsors, participants, and volunteers who helped make this year’s corporate fundraiser a success.

Together, we are helping ensure that dignity is within reach for everyone.
