Scale indicators7 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• The V Foundation for Cancer Research: A major cancer research charity that runs high-profile golf tournaments (e.g., Jimmy V Classic) as part of a broader multi-sport fundraising portfolio. Same tournament-driven fundraising motion but at vastly larger scale and different cause.
• St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Golf Events: St. Jude runs numerous charity golf tournaments across the U.S. supporting children's health. Comparable use of golf as a fundraising channel for children-focused causes, but operates as a much broader healthcare nonprofit.

Direct peers

• The ANNIKA Foundation: Founded by LPGA Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam, the foundation runs golf-related fundraising events to benefit youth development. Like SWP, it leverages an LPGA legend's brand, hosts invitationals, and channels proceeds to children-focused causes.
• First Tee: First Tee is a youth-development nonprofit that uses golf as its primary programmatic vehicle, mirroring SWP's golf-for-cause model. It is the most analogous peer in mission, scale, and beneficiary focus (children and youth character development).
• PGA Reach: PGA of America's charitable foundation, leveraging professional golf's infrastructure for community impact through tournaments and programming. Closest peer in structure — major-golf-affiliated nonprofit running tournament-based fundraising.
• Golf Fights Cancer: A nonprofit that organizes golf tournaments across the country to fund cancer research, mirroring SWP's use of golf events as the fundraising vehicle. Comparable scale and event-driven model.
• LPGA Foundation: The LPGA's official charitable arm, focused on empowering women and girls through golf. Directly comparable to SWP's women-and-girls mission and its use of LPGA-affiliated brand equity (Nancy Lopez).

Others

• Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Florida: SWP's primary 2026 beneficiary, receiving a $65K donation from the AUI/SWP Golf Tournament. Illustrative of the partner/beneficiary organizations SWP serves — useful for understanding the ecosystem but not a competitive peer.

Emerging players

• Women's Golf Day: A global awareness initiative driving women's participation in golf. Comparable audience (women in golf) but focused on participation/engagement rather than charitable giving — making it an adjacent rather than directly competitive peer.

Regional players

• Eagles for Trump / PGA REACH type regional golf charities: Regional golf charity organizations that operate single-state invitational tournaments similar in structure to SWP's Applied Underwriters Invitational. Comparable at the event level even if mission varies.
