CULVER CITY, CA -almostGOLF today announced that it will donate 10% of the proceeds from the sale of products sold on its website to the Folds of Honor Foundation from now until September 7, 2009. Customers should enter promo code PATRIOT when ordering product. Patriot Golf Day is the Folds of Honor Foundation’s flagship fundraising event.
According to the Fold of Honor Foundation website, www.foldsofhonor.org, “Today’s servicemen and women bear the incredible burden of combat and face the same economic strain faced by the rest of the country. Folds of Honor recognizes the federal government’s work to support its military service families, but it cannot succeed alone without proactive civilian organizations to assist.”
“We are proud to support the Folds of Honor Foundation, an organization that provides post-secondary educational scholarships for the children and spouses of military men and women disabled or killed while in service” said Teddy Durkin, COO of almostGOLF. “Many golf facilities are participating in Patriot Golf Day over Labor Day weekend where golfers can add one dollar to their greens fees to fund the Folds of Honor scholarships. We encourage our customers to support the Folds of Honor Foundation by visiting a participating course.” A list of courses is available on the PGA website at www.playgolfamerica.com.
