More than 120 golfers participated in the Lester J. Anixter Memorial Golf Outing on June 28 at The Glen Club in Glenview. The proceeds from the outing benefit children with disabilities served through Anixter Center and its divisions – the National Lekotek Center, Chicago Hearing Society and CALOR. The L & R Anixter Foundation was the lead sponsor for the event, which raised more than $114,000 for the thousands of children served at Anixter Center’s locations in the Chicago area.
