Founders Club Partners
We Give Where We Live…
Past and future charitable achievements of Children’s Healthcare Charity, Inc and The Honda Classic could never be accomplished without the dedication of our generous partners. These outstanding partners continue to show a deep-rooted commitment to our communities and the well-being of our youth. Since the inception of Children’s Healthcare Charity, Inc. in 2006, the host organization for The Honda Classic, almost $3 million has been distributed to various local based children’s charities, thanks to these partnerships.
In 2008, The Founders Club was established providing a premier level of partnership to a select number of tournament and host organization partners whose unwavering commitment and dedication to the youth of our community is in line with that of our tournament Board of Directors. Thanks to the efforts of American Honda Motor Corporation, Inc, our Founders Club Partners and hundreds of other tournament sponsors, The Honda Classic is dedicated to make a significant impact in our community.
"We are honored to support the Honda Classic, not only is it a premier event in Palm Beach County, it benefits local children’s charities. Tire Kingdom is dedicated to supporting community organizations that provide services to children, whether it is a local ball team or the children’s hospital, we are committed to giving back."
