Team Davenport – grandson Charlie, son Jason and grandpa (me) –needs your support!
We are playing in the CDGA Foundation’s Par 3 100 hole Marathon on May 20th to raise funds for the Foundation’s three terrific programs using golf:
Veterans rehab programs – started in the early 1940’s
Helping those with special needs – more than 90 sessions in northern Illinois serving 1,200 people each year
Youth On Course - allows youngsters to play for no more than $5 per round at participating courses
We hope you can support us by pledging at least $1.00 per hole for the team, or a total of $100 (tax-deductible). Our goal is to raise a minimum of $2,500. The marathon’s goal is raise at least $80,000. In the 8 years of the marathon, we have raised more than $700,000. The best part is the Foundation ensures that at least 90% of all contributions go directly to programs help people.
We are excited to have 3 generations playing together for such great causes. We’ll have lots of memories, fun and satisfaction of helping the CDGA Foundation. Our grandson will have a great learning experience, and will actually be working to help a program he will benefit from this season – he has registered for the Youth On Course program.
Thank you for your consideration and we hope your support!
The CDGA Foundation Golf Marathon has been an integral part of the CDGA Foundation’s fundraising efforts, raising about $650,000 in its previous eight years. Funds raised go directly towards CDGA Foundation programming, which utilizes golf to enrich the lives of individuals with special needs, military veterans and youth.
FORMAT
Participating golfers spend the months leading up to the event collecting pledges from family, friends and business associates. The CDGA Foundation provides participants with tools to achieve a $2,500 fundraising goal. Then, on Saturday, May 20 at Zigfield Troy, golfers will play 100 par-3 holes in a fun and quick fashion. Lastly, individuals who reach the $2,500 fundraising goal will be invited to a year-end party featuring golf and two meals at a private country club.
