Eagles for Children has proudly supported the following children's nonprofit organizations since 2012.

Thank you for your interest in becoming an Eagles for Children participating club.  The first step in becoming an Eagles for Children club, is having your board of directors vote to accept the program into their club. 

After the vote has passed, the following 5 steps will help you to successfully launch the Eagles for Children program at your club:

1. An “Ambassador” is selected for your club’s Eagles for Children program. The Ambassador is a 

member of your club and acts as the in-house liaison for the program. They are responsible for 

communicating with the General Manager, Head Pro, accounting department and membership 

regarding the program. The Ambassador can always reach out to the Eagles for Children staff and 

representatives for assistance in keeping the program running smoothly.

2. Make your membership aware of the Eagles for Children program. Whether through personal 

announcements at various league kick-offs, your newsletter, email or group discussions, explain 

the program, its purpose, the cost to each member, and — most importantly — the enormous 

impact on the children’s charities in our communities. 

3. Let your members know that they will be billed $2 for every eagle scored and reported to the 

pro shop, unless they opt out. Members have the option to increase their per eagle tax-deductible 

pledge at any time throughout the season by notifying the accounting department. Encourage your 

membership to increase their pledge amount throughout the year.

4. Have players report their eagles to either the first tee or the pro shop. We recommend that the pro 

shop consolidate the data and report the total eagles scored each month to the accounting 

department. It is similar to how “Holes in One” are kept (which, incidentally, are also eagles).

5. Begin recruiting and developing your club’s Eagles for Children committee. This committee will be 

responsible for reviewing the grant applications and working together at the close of the grant 

season to determine which charities will receive the grants from your club.
