Fairway to Fundraising: Charity Golf Tournaments

“Sometimes you can do events and you can get lost in the event per se, and you fail to really communicate the good work that you do in the community,” Gomes says.

Be sure to put brochures or other literature that explain the mission and programming of your organization in participants’ gift bags or in golf carts. To brand its mission in a more touching way, Fidelco has had its guide dogs at the golf course, and its clients have volunteered to be on the organizing committee. Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bluegrass has had big sisters, big brothers, little brothers and little sisters as greeters at the events.
