How to Fund our Mission?

Dear Potential Donor,

Thank you for visiting The Winged Foot Foundation, a 501c3 charity

extension of the historic Winged Foot Golf Club. The Foundation has been

established for the benefit of our employees, independent

contractor caddies, their respective families, and local charities. Over the

past difficult year, the Club and its Board realized the need for a single,

efficient institution for raising, holding, and distributing benefit funds to

those in need within the Winged Foot Family and Community.

The Covid-19 pandemic has wrought heretofore unthinkable

ramifications to daily lives. Sadly, it has seemingly delivered its toughest

blows to the already neediest parts of our communities. Even for Winged

Foot, a Club with a history and culture of giving, its ferocity was a strong

reminder of our fortunate lots in life. Inspired by passionate groups of

Winged Foot members who mobilized in various initiatives, the Club’s

Board has embarked on the establishment of this permanent vehicle by

which our family community could efficiently and speedily mobilize financial

resources to those in need. The output of this work, The Winged Foot

Foundation, was formed as a N.Y. domiciled 501(c)(3) for broad charitable

purposes.

Its intent is to provide financial support for (i) emergency assistance;

(ii) hardship assistance; (iii)educational assistance; and (iv)charitable

assistance. The amount of financial support will of course be based on the

generosity of current members and the needs of the Winged Foot community and

their respective families, and the needs of recipients, subject to the

discretion and control of the Foundation’s Board.

We are very excited for the launch and thankful in advance for any

gifts. Gifting is meant to be totally voluntary, and there are no established

suggestions on gifting size.

Thank you,

The Winged Foot Foundation
