These organizations become part of the Torch Foundation's efforts to help children "Build a Foundation for a Better Tomorrow." Approximately 600 guests were on hand to congratulate this year's honorees: Professional of the Year recipient Dennis Sherry, and Canyon of Legends recipient Anthony Lifrieri. Because of Sherry's countless charitable commitments, he was our 2014 Professional of the Year. This event raised $160,000 and in the past 24 years has raised over $5 million.
