Birdies for Charity is a key fundraising component for Quad Cities’ non-profits, including The Honor Flight of the Quad Cities.  We are dealing with some difficult times during this COVID-19 pandemic, but we are hoping to see a more normal summer, including the John Deere Classic.

We hope that you will consider supporting Honor Flight of the Quad Cities through Birdies for Charity. The pledges you make now will be distributed to Honor Flight this fall — after the John Deere Classic takes place July 6-12, 2020.

In addition to your pledges, the Classic will provide a match of at least 5%, making your donations even more impactful! You can win amazing prizes, including a 2-year lease on a 2020 Lexus NX.
