The 2022 Birdies for Charity presented by Ally program has ended. Please check back in the new year for registration information for the 2023 program.
How does Birdies for Charity work?
- Each participating charity will solicit pledges per “birdie” or flat donations to their organization through the Birdies for Charity program.
- These donations will be driven through The Ally Challenge presented by McLaren and then 100% of collected donations will be given to the designated charity.
- Birdies for Charity will provide a guaranteed 10% match. The final bonus match will be determined after the conclusion of the tournament in November 2022.
What is a birdie?
A birdie is a score of one stroke under par for any golf hole on the course. The par value of a hole is the predetermined number of strokes an expert golfer should require to complete the hole.
Example: On a par 5 hole, a score of 4 is a birdie
