Like in its past 16 editions, proceeds from the TOC will be used for beautification projects in the CNMI.
Since its inception, TOC has given over $500,000 to the Saipan Beautification Fund which has gone directly to the improvements of the tree-lined traffic medians that stretch from Garapan to the former Palm Resort SAIPAN, as well as the revitalization of the Garapan special district. In addition, TOC also contributed funds for the Paseo de Marianas, the lighting of the Saipan Beach Pathway, and most recently the beatification of the Port to Park pathway.
This year’s TOC is supported by Platinum sponsors DFS Galleria, Marianas Visitors Authority, and LaoLao Bay Golf Resort. Gold sponsors include AON Insurance, Docomo Pacific, Microl, Y’s Enterprises, Nike Golf, and Triple J Motors.
