Eagles for Children: A Growing Legacy of Impact
Since our founding in 2012, Eagles for Children has raised more than $7.5 million to support children facing adversity, and that number continues to rise each year thanks to the generosity of clubs like yours and your members!
What started with just a few clubs has grown into a multi-state movement of golfers using their game to change lives. Last year along, our supporters raised over $1.3 million, helping us fund essential programs in over 150 children’s charities.
Don’t Forget to Report Your Eagles
Every eagle counts.
Make sure you report all eagles scored so we can turn each one into dollars for children who need them most!
Thank You Again
Your club’s participation means more than you know. Golfers coming together to support children in need is what Eagles for Children is all about, and now with your help, Indiana kids have even more reason to soar!
Woodland Country Club was the very first private country club in Hamilton County. The strong tradition of family involvement continues through its multiple generations of the founding members. In 1928 famed golf course designer Bill Diddel purchased 160 acres of rolling farmland North of Indianapolis and hung on to it during the depression & World War II. He began designing his own course in 1951. Originally opened as a public course, its unique layout attracted golfers from the surrounding area and encouraged a movement to make the course a private entity.
In 1955 Mr. Diddel agreed to lease the property and build a clubhouse and swimming pool if 300 charter members could be signed by January 15, 1956. Since that time the course has matured through improvements including bent grass fairways, new tees and greens of the same bent grass.
