olonial Country Club
capped off its record
$6.
6 million year in
fundraising by distributing to
81 local charities $250,000 in
donations at the annual Colonial

breakfast.
The tournament’s recordbreaking year of fundraising is
helping a lot of local charities
and places it among the best on
the PGA Tour in charitable giving.
The $6.
6 million raised from
the 2008 event is a 50 percent
increase over 2007.
According to tournament officials, the Birdies for Charity
component of the tournament’s
fundraising efforts brought in a
whopping $5.
3 million, which set
a PGA Tour record for that program.
The Birdies For Charity
program was helped by 24 local
non-profit organizations that
solicited pledges from individuals
and corporations for every birdie
made during the Crowne Plaza
