Platinum Tee Club

Welcome to the Platinum Tee Club – an exclusive club reserved for special donors to the Bonus Fund! When you contribute to the Bonus Fund, you’re supporting all participating charities in the Birdies for Charity program. Here’s how it works:

  1. Guaranteed Bonus: Charities receive a bonus check of at least 5% on all donations raised through the program. Your support of the Bonus Fund ensures that promise continues and that nonprofits can continue their vital missions.
  2. Twice the Impact: John Deere is committed to this initiative. They’ve set aside a matching fund to provide a dollar-for-dollar match for any donation made through the program, up to $325,000.

By donating, you’ll be making a difference for hundreds of charities simultaneously, while enjoying exclusive tournament perks – it’s a win-win!
