Heritage Classic Foundation Partnership
The Hospital Auxiliary is an approved registered Charity of the Heritage Classic Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting educational and charitable initiatives to enhance quality of life and economic vitality by hosting the RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing, South Carolina’s only PGA TOUR golf tournament.
Founded in 1974, The Hospital Auxiliary supports the community by:
- Supporting our hospital volunteers
- Funding over $50,000 annually in scholarships to TCL, USCB, and Hilton Head Regional healthcare for area nursing students.
- Providing medication for those in need at Hilton Head Hospital and Coastal Carolina Hospital, as well as Volunteers in Medicine clinics in Hilton Head and Bluffton
- Supporting breast cancer patients at the Breast Health Center at Bluffton Medical Campus
- Maintaining the Children’s Memorial Garden at Hilton Head Hospital
The primary source of funds for the Auxiliary has been our annual golf tournament and our hospital gift shops. “Birdies for Charity” provides another fundraising mechanism that is fun, fast, and easy – and the Heritage Classic Foundation will contribute an extra 15% on top of your donation.
Birdies for Charity
Participants make a pledge for every birdie made at the RBC Heritage presented by Boeing. In 2019, the pros made 1,354 birdies during the tournament. If 1,300 birdies are made during the 2022 event, here are the totals for some typical pledge amounts:
- 1 cent pledge = $13.00 total pledge
- 3 cent pledge = $39.00 total pledge
- 10 cent pledge = $130.00 total pledge
- $1.00 pledge = $1,300 total pledge
Every penny counts – and all donations will be matched by 15% from the Heritage Classic Foundation. Flat donations, not tied to birdies pledge, are also accepted.
Champions Fore Charity
The Heritage Champions Fore Charity program requires a minimum contribution of $1,000. One hundred percent of all donations go directly to the charity of your choice, and the Heritage Classic Foundation will contribute an extra 15% on top of your donation.
