Partner Program

The Partner Program is for those generous people (donations of $1,500 and above) who don’t necessarily want to be in the contest, but still want to support their favorite charities, and the tournament. There are great benefits for both the charity and the donor. Partner Program donations now account for over two thirds of the overall dollars collected through the Birdies for Charity program.

If you are a donor:

Your generosity is rewarded three-fold through a Partner Program donation. First, you are guaranteed that 100 cents of every dollar you donate gets to that charity thanks to the John Deere Foundation paying all administrative costs. Second, you are providing extra support to your charity because every dollar they receive qualifies for at least a 5% bonus payment after the tournament is over. Finally, with no goods or services provided, 100% of Partner donations may be tax deductible. 

NOTE: Pledges and payments without charity designation and donor detail will be applied to the Birdies for Charity Bonus Fund benefiting all participating organizations.

GRANTS FROM DONOR ADVISED FUNDS & PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR JDC BENEFITS PER IRS REGULATIONS
