| G'day!
Thank you for visiting this website and for considering to support us in our endeavor to raise money for the kids in our community this year.
ABOUT THE FUNDRAISER
In 2004, seven Australians who work in the golf industry in the Dallas area started the Birdies for Kids Fundraiser. In just four years the fundraiser has raised $390,600.47 for local children’s charities. This year, all proceeds generated will benefit the Northern Texas PGA Junior Golf Foundation’s Golf in Schools Program and also Children’s Medical Center.
WE NEED YOUR HELP AGAIN IN 2008!
Last year 59 Northern Texas PGA Junior Golf Foundation and Legends Junior Members became “honorary Aussies” for the summer and raised $30,641.00 for the fundraiser. Johnny Antle from Graham and Michael Young from Dallas were the leading fundraisers and won fantastic prizes! We need your help again this year to help raise money for the kids! We are asking all NTPGA Junior Golf Foundation and Texas Legends Tour members to become “honorary Aussies” for the summer.
GET THE BALL ROLLING
To help us, we need you to ask for support from your friends, neighbors, and family. There are two ways to collect money. The first option is to simply ask people for help and to collect the money yourself. You will then need to deliver all money collected to the NTPGA office at 15150 Preston Rd. Suite 250 Dallas, TX 75248 on or before Thursday, August 14 at 5:00 p.m.
The second option is to start your own personal fundraising page. Simply click on the “Become a Fundraiser” link above and fill out all of your information. You can then email your friends and family the link to your website. They will be able to donate money right into your account.
PRIZES
Titleist and Qantas have been generous enough to offer prizes to the kids that earn the most money. The grand prize will be a Titleist 907D1 driver, a set of AP1 or AP2 irons, a Vokey SW, a Scotty Cameron Studio Putter, a X88 stand bag, a sport backback and six dozen ProV1 golf balls. The winner will also receive two round trip tickets on Qantas from the US to Australia!! To view the other prizes offered please visit our website at http://juniorgolf.ntpga.org/bfk_prizes.htm
