About Coeur54
What is The Coeur54? When the pandemic struck so many things changed, including how fundraising was done. The popularity of outdoor sports soared and golf was one of the few thing’s folks could do safely. This led to the idea of 54 holes of golf to raise money for local organizations who were unable to raise funds in a traditional manner due to the pandemic. We partnered with 3 area golf courses and set off to play 3 rounds of golf in one day at 3 local golf courses. We held our first event in 2020 with just 8 competitors and raised $15,000 for CdAIDE. We returned in 2021 and did a little rebranding and added a few more players to create the Coeur54. In 2021 we raised just over $30,000 that was split between Village of Hope and First Tee of N Idaho. In 2022 we returned with 16 players and focused our financial support to an organization that supports local Veterans in need. Newby-ginnings was founded in 2009 and supports those who have served our country. Going into 2022, we knew we needed to form our own Nonprofit, and the 54Foundation was born. Under the 54Foundation umbrella we can support organizations in our community on a large or small scale . Last year we held our 4th event in support of Special Needs Recreation. We were able to donate $20,000 to SNR and another $17,250 to 11 additional organizations.
