Charities We Support

---

Birdies for the Brave.    Since our first event in 2011, the Foundation has donated in excess of $1,065,000 to the Birdies for the Brave (the PGA Tour’s military outreach program).

These donations are then passed onto individual charities that work with both the Birdies for the Brave and the Lowcountry Foundation for Wounded Military Heroes and have agreed to target our donations to Wounded Heroes located in the South Carolina and Georgia low country area. 

We partner with Birdies for the Brave (B4B) for several reasons; (1) A common focus, (2) 100% of what we donate to B4B goes directly to the charities we select. B4B takes no salaries, administrative fees, or other additional fees of any sort from the donations we make thereby insuring more reaches our Wounded Heroes, and (3) our love of golf. 

This year we raised another $155,000 and exceeded our goal of reaching $1,000.000 in donations.

See specific charity information below for the donations we made this year and in total to each charity we support.  

The Special Operations Warrior Foundation ensures full financial assistance for a post-secondary degree from an accredited two or four-year college, university, technical, or trade school; and offers family and educational counseling, including in-home tutoring, to the surviving children of Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps special operations personnel who lose their lives in the line of duty.

The LFWMH has donated just under $277,000 to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation and we have funded two (2) full scholarships through graduation.

This year, we donated another $50,000 to this deserving charity .... which will help fund another full scholarship.

Operation Shower.   Since it's founding in 2007, Operation Shower has hosted baby showers for thousands of military families, thanks to the overwhelming support of individuals and groups across the country.   In 2018, the LFWMH began its partnership with Operation Shower by sponsoring their event prior to the RBC Heritage golf tournament.

In support of this event, LFWMH donated $15,000 to this charity.

Green Beret Foundation.  In 2015, the LFWMH added the Green Beret Foundation to the list of charities to receive proceeds from our fundraising activities.The Green Beret Foundation facilitates the transition of Green Berets and their families whether that transition is from wounds sustained in combat, illness, injury or “merely” from numerous deployments and/or retirement.

This year we donated another $2,500 to this charity bringing LFWMH's total donation to this charity to $15,000.
