Falvey Insurance Group Raises $30,000 for Veterans Support at Charity Golf Event

On June 9, 2025, Falvey Insurance Group held its annual charity golf tournament named "Fore the Vets" at the scenic North Kingstown Golf Course in Rhode Island. This year's event managed to raise an impressive $30,000, which will greatly benefit Operation Stand Down Rhode Island (OSDRI), a local organization dedicated to improving the lives of veterans.

The tournament witnessed participation from 144 enthusiastic golfers, all rallying to support OSDRI's vital mission. Funds collected during the day will go towards a variety of life-changing services offered by OSDRI, which include supportive and transitional housing, legal representation, intensive case management, and employment training programs. These services are crucial for veterans seeking to reintegrate into civilian life successfully.

Jack Falvey, CEO of Falvey Insurance Group, expressed pride in being a community partner for such an important cause. He stated, "Falvey is proud to be a community partner to Operation Stand Down in support of their mission to strengthen the local veteran community." This sentiment was echoed by Erik Wallin, Executive Director of OSDRI, who emphasized the organization's ongoing efforts to support veterans. Wallin noted, "Funds, like those raised by this event, are essential to our mission and have a real and meaningful impact on the lives of the veterans we serve."

In addition to the golf tournament, attendees participated in a raffle featuring various prizes donated by local businesses. Among the noteworthy contributions were two foursome golfing packages provided by Ritchie Bros and Hareld Glass, allowing veterans to join in on the fun and camaraderie of the day.

Generous sponsorships and donations came from several companies including Edward F. Travers Associates, Inc., Sansiveri, Kimball & Co., LLP, RIHEBC, and Anchor Auto Group, further illustrating the community's commitment to supporting local veterans.

Linking these recreational activities and charitable efforts, the event also offered a closing reception where golfers mingled and celebrated the success of the day while paying homage to the cause. Photos capturing moments from the day can be found on Falvey Insurance Group's website.
