Thunderbirds Charities

Thunderbird Charities
While The Thunderbirds association with professional golf garners most of the recognition, it is their charitable work in the community that brings them the most satisfaction.

In all, the FBR Open enables The Thunderbirds and Thunderbirds Charities, the charitable arm of the organization, to raise millions of dollars to benefit more than 200 charities in Arizona.
