Giving back to our community
The Greater Cedar Rapids Open has contributed more than $100,000 - mostly to youth-related charities - since its inception in 1998. An official Internal Revenue Service Qualified 501 (C-3) organization, the GCRO made direct contributions in 2010 - totaling $9,100 - to Camp Courageous, Cedar Rapids Optimists Junior Golf Association, Indian Creek Playground, Linn-Mar Foundation, Salvation Army, and each of the seven local high school golf programs.
