BONUS BUCKS
This year, Red Diamond is our proud sponsor of the Birdies for Charity “Bonus Bucks!” Their support allows for the top ten charities that raise the most money to receive additional funds from Red Diamond on behalf of the Regions Tradition. The top ten charities receive “Red Diamond Bonus Bucks” with the top charity receiving $10,000!
-
Bonus Bucks will be shared in proportion to the pledges collected on their behalf.
Bonus Bucks are paid based on a charity’s total pledges paid, not on the total pledges made. Example: Charity A solicited $20,000 in pledges, but only $10,000 is collected. Charity A receives Red Diamond Bonus Bucks based on the $10,000 collected.
Top Ten Charities:
1st place – match up to $10,000
2nd place – match up to $7,500
3rd place – match up to $5,000
