Brandon
Abbey
Escrow.com President |
While
ownership changed it has
been booming business
as usual at Escrow.com
with the same team, led by
President Brandon Abbey,
continuing to steer the
ship.
One
thing, beyond the escrow
business, that Brandon
has thrown his and the
company's support behind is
an annual golf
tournament in
Southern California that has
raised hundreds of thousands
of dollars for wounded
veterans. Brandon, who
also serves as President of Orange
County Supports Our Troops
(a registered 501(c)3
charity) said this year's
tournament to support the Semper
Fi and America’s
Fund will be
held a week from today
- on Monday, November
9th at the Coto
de Caza Golf Club.
Brandon would love to have any
"domainer golfers"
in the area sign
up to play and
support the effort.
Last
year's tournament
raised $190,000 that
was split evenly between the
Semper Fi and America's Fund
and Brandon hopes enough
people will rally around the
cause to drive that number
even higher this
year. |
