Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, August 16, 2011
DULLES, Va. - Belfort Furniture was the corporate sponsor for the YMCA Loudoun County Annual Charity Golf Tournament earlier this year, drawing home furnishings industry participation and helping to raise $45,000.
Proceeds from the May event at the Loudoun Valley Golf and Country Club in Purcellville, Va., support the YMCA's Building Bridges program, which provides after-school and summer camp opportunities for area families.

Mike Huber, CEO of the Dulles, Va.-based Top 100 company, and his wife, Kristi Huber, vice president of quality for the stores, hosted a pregolf event at their Stone Tower Vineyards in Leesburg, Va., where more than 100 industry partners enjoyed cocktails and barbecue.
Since Belfort became the event's corporate sponsor in 2005, its efforts have helped raise nearly $300,000 for the YMCA, the company said in a release.
"It sounds like such a simple thing, giving a kid a chance to take part in camp, learn worthwhile skills, have fun and make new friends," Mike Huber said. "But it is not a small thing."
