Gifts of Love: Live from the Travelers Championship Fan Zone

The Travelers Championship at the TPC River Highlands enjoyed June 17th - 23rd

Lisa Gray is the Executive Director of Gifts of Love and shares how you can support their mission through Birdies for Charity with The Travelers Championship! Listen to our interview below and get connected to Birdies for Charity!

Gifts of love assists their clients with food, clothes, and energy assistance, allowing them to use their income on other necessities such as rent, car repairs, and medications. Prior to assistance from Operation Fuel through Gifts of Love, many families were forced to choose between food and fuel – and Gifts of Love helps with both. By helping them meet their family’s most basic needs – food on the table or a winter coat – Gifts of Love enables them to focus on putting their lives back in order and regaining their self-sufficiency.

Gifts of Love's mission is to help meet the basic needs of individuals and families in the Greater Hartford area experiencing a short-term financial crisis so they can return to self-sufficiency.

In 2004, The Travelers Championship launched the Birdies for Charity program, adopting a national model that has seen great success in other markets. Today, the Birdies for Charity program continues to develop and thrive and has become an easy and effective fundraising opportunity for every 501(c)(3) organization. Birdies for Charity is a giving platform that utilizes the excitement around the Travelers Championship to help nonprofits across the region raise awareness and funds to support their missions. Thanks to the support of Webster Bank, organizations have the opportunity to receive a 15% bonus on every donation through the program.
