(CONTRIBUTED PHOTO)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Tan Siu Lin Foundation rallies behind a fundraising golf tournament that will have part of its proceeds donated to the local chapter of Karidat Social Services.<\/p>\n<p>TSL Foundation executive director Merlie Tolentino presented TanHoldings charitable arm\u2019s $5,000 donation to Marianas Variety president Amier Younis last month in support of the MV Founder\u2019s Memorial Golf Tournament. Marianas Variety is holding the golf tournament tomorrow, Saturday, at the Laolao Bay Golf &amp; Resort in celebration of its 50th anniversary and in honor of its founder and former publisher, the late Abed Younis. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn behalf of the management and staff of Marianas Variety, we would like to thank TanHoldings and the Tan Siu Lin Foundation for their support to our event,\u201d said Amier Younis.<\/p>\n<p>The Marianas Variety president added that portion of the proceeds from tomorrow\u2019s tournament will be donated to Karidat Social Services, which for decades has been responding to the needs of the community through its food pantry program, rental assistance, and other initiatives that cater to those living in poverty and victims of violence and natural disaster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of history between Marianas Variety\u2019s founder and Karidat. The late Mr. Abed Younis was a former board member of Karidat and also an avid golfer, so it\u2019s really fitting that we have this event in honor of him and we have the non-profit group closed to him as our beneficiary,\u201d Amier said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Tolentino congratulates Marianas Variety for its milestone. She also acknowledged the publishing company\u2019s contributions to the community for five decades, including providing Karidat with the means to help NMI residents.<\/p>\n<p>The inaugural MV Founder\u2019s Memorial Golf Tournament will tee off at 7:30am on the west course of the Kagman facility. It will have competitions in seven categories: Super Senior, Senior, Ladies, Championship, A, B, and C flights.
