Why Golf Outings are the Go-To Nonprofit Fundraiser

Send us Fan MailIt’s no secret that fundraising evolved in the past year. In 2021, few in-person events could be done safely or even legally in the nonprofit space. Social distancing mandates and gathering restrictions took a toll on fundraisers across the board. That is, except for one: golf outings.In fact, golf outings saw a 7.4% increase in 2021 according to the National Golf Foundation. These classic fundraisers proved to be a pandemic-friendly option, encouraging people to get outside. Executive directors who never raised a club before found themselves greeting donors out on the green. And even more will do the same this coming year. About Logan Foote:Logan Foote is the Education and Development Manager at GolfStatus.org.
