Birdies for Better is a fundraising platform for nonprofits based in or serving North Carolina and South Carolina. Charitable organizations are encouraged to invite their supporters to make a minimum $20 donation, which gives them the chance to guess the total number of birdies made during the competitive rounds (Thursday–Sunday) of the 2026 Truist Championship.
The individual who guesses the exact number of birdies will have the chance to win a one-year Audi Q5 lease or $10,000. Cash prizes may be directed to a charity of the winner’s choice upon request. Runner-up receives a VIP Experience for Two at the 2027 Truist Championship.
100% of donations go directly to the chosen nonprofit, and participating organizations also share in a $100,000 bonus pool provided by the Truist Championship. The top five fundraising charities as of April 1, 2026 will be recognized as Charity of the Day during tournament week (May 6–10, 2026) and have the opportunity to connect with fans and attendees.
Contest runs November 12, 2025 – May 6, 2026. Open to legal residents of the 50 United States and D.C. (excluding New York) who are 18 or older. No purchase necessary.
