Mark your calendar! Battle Dawgs’ Golf Scramble will be on May31st, at Settlers Bay Golf Course in Wasilla, Alaska. We are expecting approximately 144 golfing patriots, and we need your help to make this the best scramble of the year! Battle Dawgs (BD) is a non-profit [501(c)3] organization dedicated to providing outdoor rehabilitative programs for our nation’s struggling veterans. Although home from the battlefield, 20% of America’s combat veterans are still fighting, fighting to heal their invisible wounds from war. With your support, BD is here to help.
BD creates unique, Alaskan-based experience camps which are a place of sanctuary and camaraderie for combat Veterans suffering with post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injuries, and other combat related injuries. BD is based out of Talkeetna, Alaska and is a safe and effective place to reset and reintegrate.
We will be hosting the 1st Golf Scramble of 2019, in an effort to fundraise for direct camp operational costs. This golf scramble will be fun for all skill levels and provide opportunities for community networking. Our goal for this scramble is $20,000, in an effort to fund one of our many camps offered in 2019. Many different sponsorship levels are offered!
I am requesting your assistance in making this event a success, which is dependent on the sponsors’ creative and interesting involvement during the tournament. We encourage hole sponsorships to be engaged during the event by creating a fun new twist to your hole. With your sponsorship, you’ll be making a tax-deductible contribution that will help this worthwhile cause. Additionally, you’ll benefit from exposure of your company’s name to those who attend. Donors will be listed on the event program, and any promotional displays you provide will be placed in key areas around the event. Your company will also receive acknowledgment on BD’s Facebook page and website.
Your support will provide critical resources for the Warriors that seek our help. After all they have sacrificed, it’s the least we can do! If you have any questions about Battle Dawgs or our annual auction fundraiser, please contact me at (907) 982-6924 or jennifer@battledawgs.org. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
