Birdies for Charity is a fast, easy and fun way to donate to your favorite nonprofit organization. 100% of your donation goes directly to the charity of your choice. Heritage Classic Foundation will contribute an extra 15% on top of your donation. In 2022, the Heritage Classic Foundation distributed $230,000 to local nonprofits thanks to the Birdies for Charity Program, pushing the total to $6.66 million since 2000. It’s one golf tournament where everybody wins!
Participants make a pledge for every birdie made at the RBC Heritage presented by Boeing. In 2019, the pros made 1,354 birdies during the tournament. If 1,300 birdies are made during the 2023 event, here are the totals for some typical pledges amounts:
The minimum birdie pledge is $.01 and the maximum pledge is $1.00. Donors can also make a flat donation not tied to birdies. For flat donations, the minimum is $25 and the maximum is $1,500.
Donors can pay in advance or to be billed after the tournament. All pledges must be made online before the last day of our tournament and must be made payable and returned to the Heritage Classic Foundation no later than May 31st. Money received after that date will be sent to the charity but will not be matched.
An incredible way to show your support! Designate a registered charity to receive your tax-deductible donation.
Donations are accepted and matched year-round. Match donations are distributed twice a year. All donations received after December 1st will be credited to the following year.
Families, businesses or other entities may make contributions in excess of $10,000 however, the HCF will only match up to $10,000.
