Charity Highlight
On the 1st of each month, 5% of all profits are set aside to give back to the veteran community. For the month of December, we are so excited to announce that we are donating our 5% to The Veteran Golfers Association!
A Little About The Veteran Golfers Association
The VGA is dedicated to enriching the lives of Veterans and their family members through the camaraderie and sportsmanship of golf. Annually, the VGA hosts more than 450 local tournaments across the country, culminating in a VGA National Championship each fall.
The Inspiration For Their Program
The Veteran Golfers Association started as an idea amongst Wounded Veterans at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, DC. Several friends routinely got together to play golf courses around the area to encourage each other to not only improve their games but to also heal through camaraderie and competition. After recovering from their injuries, these friends relocated around the country and missed the opportunity to compete against one another regularly.
Realizing that other Veterans might be in this same situation, these friends got together in 2014 to create the Veteran Golfers Association, the first golfing organization dedicated to promoting the game to all Veterans and their family members.
The VGA is working tirelessly to create golfing programs that will keep Veterans, their family members and children active in the game of golf for many years to come.
Thank you to everyone who has and will continue to support Combat Caddie and help contribute to the greater good. We really appreciate all the support we have been getting thus far!
