Centaurus Financial's Annual Fundraiser a Major Success
On December 8, 2025, Centaurus Financial, Inc. hosted its annual Sponsor Appreciation Day, marked by an incredible display of camaraderie and philanthropy. The event, held at the picturesque Strawberry Farms Golf Club in Irvine, California, gathered over 95 golfers, all competing in support of a noble cause – rescuing animals in need. This year, the fundraising efforts culminated in an impressive $50,000 donation to the Shamrock Rescue Foundation, a dedicated nonprofit organization committed to finding homes for unwanted animals.
A Day of Golf and Generosity
The day began with sunny skies and a refreshing atmosphere, setting the perfect backdrop for a spirited golf tournament. In addition to the golfing competition, non-golfers engaged in a lively putting contest, showcasing their skills. As the tournament concluded, participants celebrated their achievements with a traditional barbecue dinner, accompanied by a silent auction that featured various local contributions. Each ticket purchase, each bid made contributed to a greater purpose.
Matching Donations for a Greater Impact
In a remarkable show of commitment, Centaurus Financial matched the $25,000 raised through the day’s events, bringing the total contribution to an extraordinary $50,000. These funds are crucial for the Shamrock Rescue Foundation, which tirelessly works to provide shelter, medical care, and behavioral rehabilitation for animals, predominantly dogs, facing uncertain futures in shelters.
Ron King, CEO of Centaurus Financial, expressed his pride at the event, stating, “We are so pleased to help innocent animals. We are also proud that 100% of every dollar raised goes directly to their care. No one takes a salary at Shamrock; all the hard work is done by dedicated volunteers.” This statement reinforces the foundational ethos of Shamrock Rescue, where every effort is channeled towards the animals they so passionately advocate for.
The Mission of Shamrock Rescue Foundation
The Shamrock Rescue Foundation stands as a beacon of hope for dogs and other animals at risk of euthanasia in public shelters. Many of these animals arrive at Shamrock without the chance of a safe and loving home. Through their extensive care programs, rescued animals receive comprehensive examinations by veterinarians, microchipping, and essential spay or neuter procedures. Additional health care is also provided as needed. Once medically cleared, animals are placed in foster homes or boarding facilities until permanent adoptive families can be found.
Their selfless commitment has enabled countless dogs to begin new chapters in their lives, driving home the message that compassion can indeed rewrite destinies. For more information about Shamrock Rescue Foundation and how to support their mission, visit
