American Express partners with Phoenix, others on PGA affinity purchases

Phoenix Athletics has announced a fundraising opportunity tied to the PGA Championship to be played this week at Whistling Straits near Sheboygan. Tour sponsor American Express has agreed to support 35 participating non-profits in Wisconsin by donating a portion of the proceeds from PGA Golf Shop sales any time a purchase is made with an American Express Card. The Phoenix Fund and the women’s basketball Fast Break Club are two of the potential beneficiaries. The deal applies to PGA Championship memorabilia and apparel purchased either on-site, or on-line.
