Thunderbirds Charities Looking for "Birdies for Charity" Participants
The Thunderbirds, hosts of the FBR Open, and Thunderbirds Charities are looking for Arizona-based nonprofits to participate in the 2006 FBR Open Birdies For Charity program. The 2005 program raised more than $800,000 for Arizona charities. Here's how it works:
Participating charities solicit pledges of one cent, two cents,
a dollar, etc. per birdie, and pledge forms are returned to the
Thunderbirds. After the 2006 FBR Open (Jan. 30 Feb. 5), the
total number of birdies will be calculated and Thunderbird Charities
will mail invoices to those who pledged. Example: 1 cent pledged
x 1,400 birdies = $14.00 pledge to the charity. After pledges
are collected, Thunderbirds Charities will cut a check for the
entire amount collected to the charity who obtained the pledge.
The Thunderbirds supply all the marketing materials. As an added
incentive, all pledges are automatically entered into a random
drawing for a 2006 Buick and 100 other great prizes.
Interested? Call or email Cheryl Ruggiero at 602-216-7325 or cruggiero@fbropen.com. For more details, see: www.fbropen.com. |
