The Butterfield Bermuda Championship, together with joint title sponsors Bermuda Tourism Authority (BTA) and Butterfield, have announced that the 2025 tournament generated over $1.4 million in charitable impact.

The total was achieved through a combination of different initiatives, including the Butterfield Bermuda Championship Birdies for Charity, the Allshores Volunteer Programme, the Butterfield Bermuda Junior Championship and the Goslings Bermuda Open.

Tournament director Danielle Carrera was delighted to reveal the figure.

“We are thrilled to once again report our tournament has had a charitable impact in excess of $1.4 million for Bermuda,” Carrera said.

“This brings our total to over $6.4 million during the life span of the event. More and more charities continue to take advantage of this programme and we encourage companies and partners to join our efforts so we can continue to make an impact in the places that matter most.”

The Butterfield Bermuda Championship Birdies for Charity, the tournament’s main charitable driver where sponsors enhance the fundraising efforts of participating Bermuda charities, helped more than 28 entities earn additional dollars in the six months between July and November.

A majority of charities succeeded in raising the maximum amount of $50,000 through the programme and matching funds were made possible by Butterfield, Bermuda Tourism Authority, Mastercard, Digicel Business, AXA XL, The Hamilton Princess and Beach Club, Somerset Re, SFG Bermuda, Allshores, and Island Construction.

The Allshores Volunteer Programme, which enables the tournament's near 700 volunteers to donate their time to the charity of their choice, helped to raise more than $78,000, a new event record, while also providing vital support to the tournament itself.

In addition, the Butterfield Bermuda Junior Championship, an American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) event, gave more than 70 international players aged 12 and above the opportunity to compete, including four local players, Oliver Betschart, Darina Betschart, John Bart, and Arman Newton.

The 2026 Butterfield Bermuda Championship is due to take place October 22 to 25, with the charitable programme launching in July and charities can register their interest by contacting Dede Cooper at dede@butterfieldbdachampionship.com
