100 Holes for the Homeless

Homelessness knows no season. Wheeler serves hundreds of men, women & children experiencing homelessness every day of the year.

You can help! Golfers help those experiencing homelessness by committing to raise money as their entry fee. Every $500 raised provides a guest with food, shelter, and care for one month.

Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are a wonderful way to support and encourage 100 Holes for the Homeless participants while benefiting Wheeler Mission. Not only will you encourage your golfer by giving, but you’ll also make a tremendous impact on the lives of people experiencing homelessness in our community. Grants made to Wheeler Mission through DAFs will be used “where most needed” to help provide nourishing meals, safe shelter, and other essential care to their guests in need.

Clients of some of the largest Donor Advised Funds can easily make a designation by conveniently clicking on the box of their Fund below. If your DAF is not listed, please connect with them directly to get the process started.

When making your gift, please indicate 100 Holes and the name of the golfer being supported in the designation, and your gift will be credited to his or her personal fundraising page once Wheeler receives the check. You may also need to include Wheeler Mission’s Federal Tax I.D. Number: 35-0888771.

For more information, please contact Jeff Boxell, Wheeler Mission's Senior Director of Donor Relations, at 317.635.3575 or JeffBoxell@wheelermission.org. 

THANK YOU for your generous gift during this exceptional time to help our neighbors experiencing homelessness!

Don't want to play all 100 holes by yourself? No problem, you can split them with a friend!

Here's how it works:

Each hole should be played by the same person. Here are two options:

1. Alternate holes.
   Example: Jim would tee off all balls on the first hole and complete the hole, then Todd would tee off the balls on the next hole and complete until the end.
2. Player 1 plays the first part of the day and player 2 takes over the second part of the day.
   Example: Jim would play the first 50 “holes” in a row and then Todd would come and play the final 50.
3. •  
4. • •  

Here's how to register:

• Click the "Sign Up" button
• During registration, choose one of the "(splitting with a friend)" options
• Registration will force you to either Join an Existing "Splitting with a friend" Team or Create a New "Splitting with a friend" Team. Choose the appropriate option depending on whether you are the first or second friend to sign up.
• From there you will complete the registration process like normal by following the prompts

This is Jack Barber. Jack played 100 Holes for the Homeless for 7 total years, and raised over $125,000 for Wheeler Mission during his time with the event.

Jack is retiring from the event this year, but his legacy is solidified as our all-time leading fundraiser. Jack will be greatly missed, but we are excited to see how this year’s group of golfers will finish, as they are all currently raising money to help people experiencing homelessness.

Great work Jack! We are forever grateful for your efforts!
