Drive Fore Kids will have three (3) focal areas of charitable giving and fundraising:
YOUTH: In and out of golf, supporting organizations that provide aid, opportunity, and/or education to local youths has been our top priority. We will continue to expand opportunities and support systems for children and families around food, healthcare, education, and sport.
DIVERSITY: The northeast has a beautifully diverse population, and expanding opportunities for underserved groups remains a focus of ours in putting on this tournament. We are committed to expanding and highlighting job opportunities with our partners and ensuring a diverse representation in our playing field, volunteer base, and partner base.
SUSTAINABILITY: We are committed to being a zero-waste-to-landfill event, purchasing offsets to our carbon footprint, and composting food products with local partners. We will always strive to reduce our environmental impact while maximizing the impact of donations to our charities.
