Making a difference for IPSEP
thanks to Eagles for Children...

Eagles for Children is a nonprofit organization commit-
ted to supporting local charities for disadvantaged youth
through partnerships with private golf clubs.
The Eagles for Children concept is simple: members
come together to donate a minimum of $2 for every eagle
scored by members and their families at their club.
Throughout the season, each club accumulates donations
for charities of their choice that focus on children in need.
This year Meadowbrook Country Club in Northville
joined this new initiative. Thanks to the great golfing skills of
their members, during the 2017 season Meadowbrook
golfers scored 49 eagles and collected $43,000 to be
awarded to charitable non-profit organizations in their area
that focus on helping disadvantaged children.
Thanks to the “eagle
eye” of Rotarian Nick
Schultz, we were made
aware of this program.
Acting on behalf of the
children at IPSEP, our
Club was one of their
fortunate recipients. The
Eagles grant enabled us
to purchase the “Bubble
Machine” for IPSEP. Calmed by the Bubble Machine.
