FBR Open PGA Golf Tournament
Philanthropy
The 2010 edition will mark the 75th playing of the Open! Annually sporting the largest crowds on the PGA Tour, this tournament has gained legendary status on Tour for being unlike any other golf tournament. The Thunderbirds, the hosts of the Open since 1939, have turned an ordinary "golf tournament" into a community event/happening, and along the way have raised close to $53 million for Arizona charities. As volunteers of the Phoenix Panhellenic Association (PPA), we will donate time to work at the FBR and in exchange, the Phoenix Thunderbirds generously donate money to PPA's yearly Scholarship Fund. Volunteer and recruit your family, neighbors, and friends to work one 6-hour shift. You don't have to be Greek to participate and all volunteers receive a free week-long pass to attend the Open!
