The team at ParrisWhittaker takes a tremendous amount of pride in the relationships we have built in the community. We also take pride in giving back to the community and empowering the area’s youth. That is why we’re honoured to be a __ Level sponsor of The Golden Eagles Track & Field Club.

“We are firm believers in the philosophy that young leaders need experiences and opportunities to thrive. That’s exactly what the incredible people at The Golden Eagles provide, year after year, and we’re privileged to contribute,” said Arthur K. Parris, founding partner of ParrisWhittaker.

“This year, their fundraising efforts are aimed at helping to send our young athletes to the Speed Capital Series Track & Cross-Country Meet in Miramar, Florida. This is such an invaluable opportunity for these young people to qualify for CARIFTA, Jr. CAC and hopefully catch the eye of NCAA scouts. We encourage everyone in the community to help this incredibly worthy cause.”

Over the last 20 years, The Golden Eagles have trained such accomplished athletes as:

● Shaquaina Dorsette, CARIFTA double gold medalist, Florida State University Stand-out
Athlete Graduate and World Relay Member.
● Brianne Bethel Junior World Silver Medalist, Jr. PAN AM Silver Medalist, CARIFTA Three-
Time Medalist, Olympian, University of Houston Outstanding Athlete, and World Relay
Team Member
● Quanisha Marshall Double CARIFTA Medalist

“Investing in our community’s youth is always a win-win for the community,” said A. Kenra
Parris-Whittaker, Partner at ParrisWhittaker.

“If we provide the opportunity to learn and mature today, these athletes will grow up to be the
community leaders of tomorrow. And they will remember the people and organizations that
helped them, which means they will want to do the same for the next generation. We believe
that’s how strong communities are built.”
