Starting each January in Hawaii, the PGA states their
weekly Tournamwent supports some type of Charity. Does anyone
know exactly how much these 'Charities' realize from the
weekly Tour event? The prize pools offered by the sponsors
are huge, just wondered what percentage of the prize pool
is realized by the Charity?

Check the PGA website.....

States....

Last year, 19 PGA TOUR events each raised more than $1 million for
community charities. Two Champions Tour tournaments also went over the $1
million mark in charitable donations.
