Helping our wounded warriors, their families and the survivors of the fallen

 

What is Putting for Patriots?

Each May, Pirate’s Cove and Pirate’s Island Adventure Golf courses nationwide unite for Putting for Patriots—our annual fundraiser honoring veterans and their families. Over Memorial Day weekend, all 29 courses donate a portion of sales and invite guests to give, turning a round of mini golf into something truly meaningful. But Putting for Patriots is more than just a fundraiser—it’s our way of standing with America’s heroes who have sacrificed so much. Thousands of veterans return home with life-altering injuries, PTSD, or grieving families left behind. While medical care is provided, essential needs often go unmet—like specialized equipment, mental health support, home modifications, and education. These gaps place heavy burdens on veterans and their loved ones. That’s where our partner charities step in—offering hope, healing, and practical aid where it’s needed most. Together, we’ve raised more than $880,000 since 2007, helping ensure veterans and their families receive the comprehensive care and support they deserve.
