A good way to raise money for your group or organization is through a golf fundraiser. Golf is popular among a large portion of society, so a golf fundraiser has the potential to attract a large number of participants.
A typical golf fundraiser involves holding a golf tournament. Participants can choose their own teams or the organization can assign participants to teams. Your organization may want to utilize a handicap system to make the play more exciting. The organization that sponsors the tournament can also raise funds by selling food and drink to the participants on the course. Often, golf tournaments also feature raffles where the winner receives a golf-related prize. Larger organizations with financial resources dedicated to fundraising may also consider holding a post-tournament dinner where the winners are announced.
Organizing a golf marathon is another good golf fundraiser that can raise money for your group. Your organization could charge participants an entry fee in order to play. Alternately, players may raise money by finding sponsors to commit to paying a certain dollar amount for each hole a golfer plays during the duration of the golf fundraiser.
Finally, your group could hold a golf fundraiser by organizing a day of golf advice and lessons. A golf pro could be enlisted to discuss golf strategy via lecture or during a fundraising dinner. Or a golfing class could be held where a golf pro dispenses advice and gives pointers. Participants would purchase tickets for the event.
