Greg cheered on the runners and was joined by his wife, Marcia, son, Gregory, Mark & Andrea Palios (TEN10), and Tammy & David Palmer (TEN10) and family friends as well as clients of TEN10.
More than 55,000 runners from across the world came to New York to participate in the NYC marathon and TEN10 was there cheering on one of their own. Nick Matzelle, 24, son of Greg Matzelle, ran his first NYC marathon on Sunday, November 3rd in 3 hours and 35 minutes. Nick ran for the Ronald McDonald house and raised over $10,000 to help provide comfort, care and support for families with children who are sick around the world.
“This was my first marathon and it was a great feeling to know that I wasn’t just running for myself. I was running for sick children,” says Nick. “I was thinking of them when it got difficult and thinking of what they’ve been through and it pushed me to continue.”
On June 3rd, TEN10 hit the links and sponsored Project Purples 4th Annual Charity Golf Classic at Shorehaven Golf Club in Norwalk, CT. to raise awareness and funds for the fight against pancreatic cancer.
“It really means something for us to be able to support Project Purple,” said Mark Palios. “My cousin lost his battle with pancreatic cancer and being a Project Purple sponsor is very personal and one way for us to honor his strength.”
Mark was joined by his son, Marko, Greg and his son, Nick.
