Ray White - The Proud Naming Rights Sponsor of the Legends Game

Tuesday 1 June 2010

Ray White is once again proud to be the naming rights sponsor of the EJ Whitten Legends Game much to the delight of our Victorian Ray White offices and beyond.
 
Our association with this event continues into its 15th year because we are proud to put our name alongside one of the game’s greats, EJ Whitten and just as importantly the EJ Whitten Foundation, which works tirelessly to raise the awareness of Prostate Cancer and fund research into the disease. We’re equally pleased that the event will be broadcast nationally this year ensuring wider awareness for this very worthwhile cause.
 
Like the EJ Whitten Foundation, Ray White is a household name in Australia and New Zealand, a name synonymous with residential, commercial and rural property as well as home loans, property management and property funds investment.
 
I would like to thank all of our Ray White businesses for their ongoing support and involvement, and in turn we would like to thank the ‘legends’ for their time in supporting such a significant event.
