The Principal Charity Classic's "Birdies for Charity" raises funds for organizations --including ChildServe--that help children. You can either make a flat donation amount or pledge a per-birdie pledge of $0.02 or more. Based on the number of birdies hit during the Principal Charity Classic in the past (approximately 800), a pledge of $0.02 would be approximately $16.

100% of your pledge goes to ChildServe - simply click on this link.
