Birdies For Charity-Pledge Form

What is Birdies for Charity®?
Birdies for Charity® is a fundraising program that entails individuals and businesses making a pledge per-birdie made at the 2010 Reno-Tahoe Open (or making a flat donation) to the participating charity of your choice.

In 2009 there were over 1400 birdies made at the Reno-Tahoe Open, meaning even a $.25 donation per-birdie would have equaled over $350 for your favorite participating charitable organization! How close can you come to guessing this year's birdie count? How much can you raise for northern Nevada charities?

How Do I Make a Pledge?
You can make a pledge as low as $.01 per birdie or make a flat donation. After the tournament, we will send out invoices in the dollar amount relating to the number of birdies actually made at the tournament. You will also receive a tax exempt letter as your pledge is 100% tax deductible. Visit the link below to make your pledge:

Beyond the Good Feeling, Do I Get Anything for Participating?
Yes! In addition to feeling great about supporting local charities and having the opportunity to write off your donation on your taxes, participants in the Guess-the-Birdies contest have the opportunity to win a fantastic prize. The person guessing the actual number of birdies made at the 2010 Reno-Tahoe Open will win the grand prize.

What is the GRAND PRIZE this year?
