2022 Grant Recipients |
Our foundation was established in 2009 to allow the Black Hawk Unit to discontinue the “pass the hat” practice of funding our contributions to worthy local groups, and to provide funds to expand our participation in giving to local educational, social, and benevolent organizations of the Quad City Area.
Beginning in 2011, the Birdies for Charity program associated with the John Deere Classic has provided the major source of continuing funds for our foundation. However, participation has primarily been limited to members who attend our monthly meetings. This year 26 members pledged $1,915.00 and John Deere added 5% for a total of $2,068. 20. We welcome monetary donations of any amount. If you wish to make a memorial, bequest, or honorary donation, please let us know if you would like to be acknowledged in the Wise Owl Newsletter or On the Website. Contributions can be mailed to: Michael J. Daly 3324 37th Avenue Drive Moline, IL 61265 Email: [email protected] |
