Dormie Network Foundation leverages a national network of private golf clubs to enrich communities and empower nonprofit organizations through experiential, golf-based fundraising. As a 501(c)(3) founded in 2020, the Foundation supports nonprofits nationwide through in-kind donations and direct cash grants to help organizations expand their reach and deepen their impact.
Dormie Network Foundation’s giving is built around golf as a fundraising tool: it donates Dormie Network memberships and stay-and-play packages so nonprofit partners can use them in auctions, galas, and donor stewardship efforts. That in-kind model sits alongside cash grants, including general operating support for nonprofit organizations and time-limited matching campaigns. The foundation also states that its cash grant opportunities are invitation-only, while other nonprofit support and partnership requests can be submitted. Recent grants show a mix of community, health, military, and golf-related beneficiaries. The largest recent award in the grant list went to Maxwell Rural Fire Department for general operations, and another sizable grant supported Team Red White & Blue Inc for general operations. Other recent recipients include Navy Seal Foundation Inc, Folds of Honor, Els for Autism Foundation Inc, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, and Pac-haiti Inc. The foundation’s published focus areas include Youth Golf, Environmental Initiatives, Military and First Responders, and Healthcare and Humanitarian, which align with its use of experiential fundraising assets and direct operating support. Although the organization is founded in 2020, its grant profile already shows repeated support for general operations and nonprofit capacity building rather than project-only awards. That pattern is visible across both cash grants and in-kind contributions used to raise unrestricted funds for partner organizations.
Youth and golf-related support appears in both cash and in-kind giving. Youth On Course received $10,000 for general operations, and the foundation also lists Youth Golf as a standing focus area. Its in-kind programs are designed for auctions and donor cultivation, giving nonprofit partners memberships and stay-and-play packages that can raise unrestricted revenue. Military and first responder organizations also appear in the recent grant record. Navy Seal Foundation Inc received $42,785 in 2025 and $25,367 in 2024, both for general operations, while Folds of Honor received $25,000 for general operations. Those grants fit the foundation’s stated Military and First Responders focus area and its preference for operational support. Health and humanitarian causes show up as well. Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals received $25,000 for general operations, and Pac-haiti Inc received $10,000 in both 2023 and 2025. The foundation’s listed focus areas also include Healthcare and Humanitarian, matching these awards.

Typical grants cluster in the $10,000 to $25,000 range, with a p25 of $10,000, a median of $20,000, and a p75 of $25,000. The recent list also includes larger outliers, such as $101,599 and $100,000. Most grants in the data are for general operations, which fits the foundation’s stated philosophy around unrestricted, core, and sustainability support. The grant record suggests some repeat support rather than one-time-only giving: Navy Seal Foundation Inc appears in both 2024 and 2025, and Pac-haiti Inc appears in 2023 and 2025. The foundation is a 501(c)(3), funds organizations rather than individuals, and uses both cash grants and in-kind partnership support. Cash grant opportunities are invitation-only, while other partnership requests accept unsolicited submissions.

It depends on the program. The foundation says its Cash Grant Program is invitation-only and does not accept unsolicited proposals. By contrast, its nonprofit support and partnership requests for donated memberships, event support, and other charitable contributions accept unsolicited submissions.
It donates Dormie Network memberships and stay-and-play packages that nonprofits can use for auctions, galas, golf tournaments, and donor stewardship. The foundation says nonprofit partners retain 100% of the funds raised through those in-kind donations.
