Teeing Off for Teen Lifeline

Defero’s Executive Director of Solutions Architecture, Andy Parnell, co-chaired the 2008 Firetag Invitational on December 5th. Andy created this annual event three years ago to benefit Teen Lifeline, whose mission is “To provide a safe, confidential and crucial crisis service where teens help teens make healthy decisions.” The event was dedicated to the memory of Jules Firetag, the first president of Teen Lifeline’s board and advocate to those in need. The event successfully raised more than $15,000 and has contributed more than $50,000 in its three-year run. Defero encourages its employees to donate their time and money to local nonprofits and is proud to support Teen Lifeline.
