Shayne Roofe, the store manager for Harps in Rector, presented a $5,000 check to Helping Hands Foundation board members on Monday. The company, which has 53 stores in Arkansas, Oklahoma and Missouri, has raised more than $1 million dollars for charities through its annual Charity Golf Classic. The funds are then distributed among the stores to be turned back into the communities in which they are a part.
