2019 has been so amazing for us so far and we are grateful!
We are excited to announce that professional golfer, Maverick McNealy, is generously using his golf talents to raise funds to support Curriki! In his campaign “Birdies for Education”, McNealy is personally donating $20 for every birdie he makes during the 2019 Web.com Tour season to go towards Curriki.
“I know the value of high quality education and believe that all kids deserve the very best, so I’ve committed this season to Curriki through Birdies for Education” -Maverick McNealy
He has opened it up for everyone to join him on his endeavor to support high-quality education for all and is running a pledge-based campaign through his site. He averages over 12 birdies per tournament and aims to make 500 birdies the whole season. So this an incredible opportunity to be part of something amazing for Curriki!

HOW BIRDIES FOR EDUCATION WORKS
Visit McNealy’s Birdies for Education site to access his pledge-based fundraiser.
Register your tax deductible pledge (you can pledge as low as $1.00 per birdie!) for every birdie McNealy makes this season. You can also opt to make a one-time donation.
What is a Birdie?
Par is the normal expected score for a Web.com Tour professional on any given hole. A birdie is a score of one stroke better than par.
Follow McNealy’s tournament season to see your pledge progress at Birdies for Education, and on Curriki’s social media channels (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram). You can also follow #BirdiesforEducation for the latest!
McNealy started his freshman year with the world amateur ranking of #3767 and has worked his way to become the top-ranked amateur in the world. A long time advocate for education, McNealy graduated from Stanford University with a degree in Management Science and Engineering. He has already hit the Web.com tour season strong. We are only on the second week of his tour and he has already raised $38,260 with 72 donors (pledges and one-time donations)! Let’s keep the momentum going and lock in your pledge now!
So join the fun and be part of McNealy’s team to help Curriki eliminate the education divide! With your help, we can continue to provide vetted free instructional resources from esteemed partners, provide free webinars, develop standards-based online courses, and more!
