Which charities did Team USA members select for their $100K contributions?

HAVEN, Wis. — United States Ryder Cup Captain Steve Stricker, his five vice captains and the 12-member U.S. Team have finalized their $2.85 million commitment to the 43rd Ryder Cup Outreach Program, which will go to designated charities and youth-golf development programs across the country.

Since 1999, and now spanning 11 Ryder Cups, the outreach program has contributed over $28.6 million to more than 200 charitable organizations.

All members of the 43rd U.S. Team, along with Stricker, designated $100,000 each to the charity or charities of their choice. Another $100,000 is directed to support youth-golf development programs designed to introduce children to golf, provide unique approaches to play the game and deliver world-class coaching and mentoring to juniors who may not otherwise have the financial means.

The five U.S. Vice Captains – Fred Couples, Jim Furyk, Zach Johnson, Davis Love III and Phil Mickelson – each designated $25,000 to the charity or charities of their choice, and another $25,000 to support youth-golf development programs.

The youth golf development programs that will benefit directly from the 43rd Ryder Cup Outreach Program are PGA Jr. League, Drive, Chip & Putt Championship and KPMG Future Leaders Program.
