October 16, 2024 – Lincoln, Nebraska – In response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene and Milton, Dormie Network and Dormie Network Foundation are taking action to support recovery efforts. This fundraising campaign aims to double the impact of community donations by offering a matching program, where every dollar contributed will be matched by Dormie Network up to $50,000. This partnership with donors aims to raise a total of $100,000 for the American Red Cross, which is providing essential relief services to those in need across the Southeast.
As millions of Floridians struggle with the new damage from Hurricane Milton, the American Red Cross is tirelessly working in the Carolinas, Georgia, and Tennessee to provide shelter, food, water, relief supplies, and comfort to those still coping with the unimaginable destruction left behind by Hurricane Helene.
While Dormie Network’s Midwest and Eastern clubs—Dormie Club, Victoria National, Ballyhack, and Hidden Creek—experienced increased rainfall, none sustained major damage.
In a show of solidarity, Eric Harbauer, Director of Agronomy at Dormie Club, and his team have donated over 100 hay bales from a field outside the course to assist local North Carolina farmers recover flooded fields.
The Red Cross has been helping people since this onslaught of devastating weather began and will support people in the coming weeks and months. However, these back-to-back disasters require a team effort. The Red Cross relies on community partners and generous donors to ensure they can mobilize quickly when it matters most.
The community is invited to join Dormie Network and Dormie Network Foundation with the launch of a donation match program with all proceeds going to the Red Cross. Dormie Network will match each donation up to $50,000, dollar for dollar, for a total donation of $100,000 to the Red Cross. Individual donors’ support for those impacted by Hurricane Helene and Milton will have double the impact.
As a thank you from Dormie Network, a donation of $100 or more gives donors the chance to win a 2-day, 1-night Stay and Play at Dormie Club. The all-inclusive Stay and Play for four includes golf, lodging, food, beverage, and a forecaddie for the first round. Booking is subject to availability.
