As the Celebrations of our 50th year in business come to an end, Cathy and I are left feeling more grateful than ever for what the Willis family has accomplished with the support from each and every one of you. We are truly blessed.
This year has seen many challenges. Not just from an internal perspective with the unimaginable loss of a friend and dear member of our Willis family, but from around the country and around the globe as we continue the fight for peace, love and respect.
But amidst all of the negative news headlines, we truly believe that there is so much good in the world. It is our collective responsibility to see that it spreads.
Though Willis has continued to spread our wings in our relatively newly-acquired territories - including our first-ever major sponsorship in the Palm Springs Modernism Week festival - this is not the most important work that we've accomplished. We've remembered our roots; we've remembered that giving back is, and should always be, at the core of everything we do.
Our Pinball Clemons Fundraising Efforts
As you are likely aware, we have been aiming to raise $50,000 for the Pinball Clemons Foundation (PCF) in honor of our 50th year in business. We've coordinated several prize draws, received generous donations from several business partners and customers, and we have, all-in-all, done a great job at raising awareness for this extraordinary foundation.But let's aim for even more.
At the time of year when it is often needed most, we invite you to help us close off 2017 by joining us in giving back.
With that said, Willis will match - dollar for dollar - all donations received through the end of the year in order to help the PCF continue to empower youth through education by taking them from the Margins to the Mainstream.

Thank you for your love, support, and continued partnership.
From our house to yours, Merry Christmas.
Mike & Cathy Hetherman
