The William and Mary men's and women's golf teams are proud to announce the beginning of its fourth year running the "Tribe Birdies for Breast Cancer" donation effort. Since its beginning in the Spring of 2011, the Tribe has raised more than $23,000 for breast cancer research through the Susan G. Komen Foundation, including over $1,200 already this spring.
Contributions to the "Tribe Birdies for Breast Cancer" can be made either as a single donation, or on a per-birdie basis. To make a single donation, please visit the TBBC webpage at
www.infokomen.org/goto/tribebirdies and follow the "Donate" link.
To make a per-birdie pledge, please email your name and pledge amount to
tribebirdiesforbreastcancer@gmail.com. Pledges are based on the total number of birdies the Tribe women's team will make during the spring tournament season. For example, if the donor pledges $0.25 per birdie and W&M makes 200 birdies, the donor agrees to make a $50 donation to TBBC. At the end of the season, all donors will be informed of how well the Tribe has played, and how much each pledge is then worth.
The teams are both in action at home in the next two weeks, hosting the Middleburg Bank Intercollegiate on the famed River Course at Kingsmill Resort. The women's tournament will begin Sunday, March 16-18, with the men playing the following week, March 23-25. To keep up all spring long, fans can like the campaign on Facebook, at
