 Welcome to Birdies for Charity! 

To complement the extensive charitable efforts already in place, the Deutsche Bank Championship is embarking on a new charitable challenge for the 2006 season.  The Birdies for Charity program is an initiative that allows charities to utilize and leverage professional golf as a vehicle for fundraising. The program has enjoyed success at several PGA TOUR events and has proven to be a favorite among golf fans.

�The Deutsche Bank Championship is thrilled to be involved with the Birdies for Charity program,� said Eric Baldwin, Championship Director for the Deutsche Bank Championship.  �This program allows us to connect with the charities we have supported in a new and creative way, while continuing to raise dollars for their cause. It also allows us to continue our efforts to be good corporate citizens and make an impact in our own local community.�   

The 15 participating charities for the 2006 Birdies for Charity program include: Agassiz Village; Artists for Humanity; Boston Cares; Bottom Line; Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston; Boys & Girls Clubs of Providence; First Tee of Massachusetts; G-Row Boston; Healthworks Foundation; Hockomock Area YMCA; Mass Mentoring; Norton/Attleboro YMCA; St. Mary�s Women & Children�s Center; Tiger Woods Foundation and Young Entrepreneurs Alliance (YEA).
