Support StandUp For Kids through TICKETS FORE CHARITY
Bridgestone Invitational
Golf Tournament
Akron, Ohio
August 4 through August 9, 2009
StandUp For Kids is proud to partner with the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament through TICKETS Fore CHARITY, a fundraising program designed to generate revenue for local charities where PGA TOUR tournaments are held.
StandUp For Kids will have the opportunity to promote the sale of tournament tickets with 100% of the net proceeds from the ticket sales going to charity. 75% of the proceeds will benefit the promoting organization and 25% will benefit The First Tee of Akron, Canton and Cleveland, a program which teaches young people life skills through golf.
Showing your support is as easy as 1-2-3:
- Click bridgestoneinvitational.com/tfc to purchase tickets to the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament on behalf of StandUp For Kids.
- Select the quantity of tickets you would like to purchase (please not that these are for any day of the tournament and that tickets are $35 each). Be sure to enter code SUFK to designate StandUp For Kids as the benefiting charitable organization.
- Provide payment information and you will receive a confirmation email, with your e-ticket attached, shortly thereafter. Please be sure to print out this ticket and present it at the gate in order to gain entry!
