Donate thru Birdies for Charity to increase your gift by 10%

CLICK HERE TO MAKE A DONATION (but please read below first)

We are excited to announce that the Iowa Youth on Course program is now one of the charities available to donate to through the Principal Charity Classic Birdies for Charity program.  Many of you have supported our Youth On Course program with donations in the past and we are hopeful that you will continue to support that program in 2020.  The best part is, doing it through BFC will result in a 10% increase to your donation.

Any donation that is made through BFC is increased by 10% through a matching fund. That means your $50 donation turns into a $55 donation or your $100 becomes $110.

NOTE: you will have two options when donating. You can give a flat donation (most people do this) or you can pledge a certain amount per birdie made during the PCC (typically there are between 700-900 birdies made in a year).

Finally, a few items for you to be aware of as you donate through the PCC-BFC portal:

• If you have never donated to the program, you will set up a profile with a username and password first, then you will be able to proceed with your donation.
• During the profile set up, you do not need to worry about the “Organization” field unless you wish to identify your business entity as a donor.
• On the page when you input your gift amount be sure to select “Iowa Golf Association Foundation-Youth on Course” as your charity from the drop-down. The link we have included in this email should self-populate that, but please make sure.
• Upon completing your donation, you will receive an email that will serve as your tax receipt letter from the Birdies for Charity program.
• GO TO THIS LINK to get started and make a donation.

RATHER PAY WITH A CHECK? You can and the 10% match will still happen.  Here are the details:

• Make the check out to: “Principal Charity Classic” but include “IGAF-Youth on Course” in the memo line.
• Please also include a note that says  your donation is for the IGAF-Youth on Course charity.  There are many different charities that utilize this program so please be sure you identify us!
• Send to:
  • Principal Charity Classic
    Attn: Birdies For Charity
    PO Box 93905
    Des Moines, IA 50393

Thank you very much for your consideration in donating.  If you have any questions at all please contact Chad Pitts at the IGA ([email protected]).
