       The Honda Classic To Distribute A Near Record $5.1 Million


       To Local Charities Despite The Challenges Of The Pandemic



      More Than 100 Charities And 100,000 Children
      Will Be Impacted By Honda Classic Cares


        The Honda Classic is awarding $5.1 million to 100 South Florida philanthropic
      organizations in 2021, a number that approaches tournament record levels despite the
      widespread impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
        The $5.1 million distribution during Honda Classic Cares Week (June 7 to 10) will
      impact the lives of more than 100,000 children and provide a much-needed boost to
      South Florida community charities that faced their own fiscal challenges in a tough year.
        The Honda Classic has now surpassed $55 million in charitable contributions as
      American Honda approaches its 41st year as title sponsor of the PGA TOUR event,

      National Monument Honors Courageous
      Canines Who Served In U.S. Armed Forces

      From Civil War To Today


        There are some 2,700 dogs currently in active military service and about 700 who are
      deployed overseas, according to the U.S. Department of Defense. But for the most part,
      these courageous canines – like the countless thousands who served in the military dating
      back to the Civil War – have not been given the credit due to them for their heroic acts on
      and off the battlefield.
