Today we celebrate our Foundation Manager, Suzy Schneider, as she enters a well-deserved retirement 💙
What began as a part-time role quickly grew into a defining chapter of the NCPGA Foundation. Over the last 15 years, Suzy’s passion, leadership, and genuine care for others helped ...shape the Foundation into what it is today. Her dedication to expanding PGA HOPE and serving veterans throughout Northern California has made a meaningful and lasting difference.
Suzy’s upbeat spirit, compassion, and steady commitment elevated our mission and brought energy and heart into the NCPGA Foundation. She has been a truly valued member of our team and will be deeply missed in our office.
Thank you, Suzy, for 15 remarkable years of service, for leading with heart, and for always going above and beyond. Your impact will be felt for years to come, and we are incredibly grateful to call you part of the NCPGA family ✨
Here’s to the next chapter - may your retirement be nothing but fairways, greens, and well-earned rounds ahead ⛳️✨
