HOW YOU CAN HELP

Mercy Housing and Shelter is excited to announce our fundraising partnership with the 2012 Travelers Championship Birdies for Charity program!

The Birdies for Charity Program provides organizations in Connecticut the opportunity to raise funds by collecting pledges based on the number of birdies made by PGA Tour Professionals during tournament week. At the conclusion of the tournament, The Travelers Championship will calculate the numbers of birdies made by the pledged amounts, and then will distribute invoices to each of our donors. The Travelers Championship will donate 100% of the proceeds to our organization.

As a donor, you could also win great prizes! Prizes include a $1,000 cash gift card, 2 tickets to the Ryder Cup, and other great prizes.

In our continued effort to end homelessness, we hope you will join us as we raise funds through the Birdies for Charity program.

Our goal is to raise $5,000!

The deadline to make a pledge is June 19.
