Largo recently hosted the second annual charity golf tournament benefitting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF). The event was held at the beautiful Boulder Ridge Golf Club in San Jose, CA and raised nearly $89,000 for the cause.
Largo recently donated the concrete work for the patio and ADA ramps and sidewalks for the Plumeria House in Anaheim, CA. The Illumination Foundation led the effort of renovating the property to provide homeless shelter for children with disabilities.
