<div>The Birdie Bonanza is a one-day fundraising event to support the PGA REACH Nebraska Foundation and other charitable organizations to impact lives through the game of golf. Nebraska Section PGA Professionals will play (54) holes of golf in one day to make as many birdies as possible! Through each professional’s network, solicited donors make a financial pledge per birdie to “support their pro!” and help raise funds to benefit the non-profit 501c(3) organizations. Every pledge, every flat donation, and financial support of any NEPGA Professional in the field truly impacts lives - Please consider helping us today!</div>
