Lapointe Insurance held its second annual Swing into the Spring fundraiser at TopGolf Rhode Island on Thursday, March 13. It was another great night, as we raised $23,461.74.

“This event has truly become the highlight of our year,” said Jill Fearons, President/Founder of the Friends of Jack Foundation. “The generosity of Lapointe Insurance and the sense of community created by their partners are unmatched. We are so grateful to every single person who came out to the event, and especially all the companies that sponsored. We love what we do and it makes it even more rewarding when we are in an environment with so many people who believe in what we do too.”

All proceeds go directly to Friends of Jack, helping fund vital healthcare-focused programs for children in the Greater SouthCoast region. Last year, we raised $29,000.

How do you possibly say thank you for such an incredibly generous gesture?

For the FOJ team, sneakers are our love language. So we designed custom Nike Air Force 1 sneakers for everyone at Lapointe. To illustrate our partnership, we used Lapointe colors in the front of the sneaker, and slowly blended into FOJ colors. On the back of each shoe are the initials FOJ and HWL (in honor of founder Herman W Lapointe).  

We couldn’t be more grateful to Lapointe for supporting our mission and being such amazing partners.
