Buick's involvement with Birdies for Charity continues Buick's tradition of benefiting local charities through it's status as Official Car of the PGA TOUR.

In addition to being the Official Car of the John Deere Classic, Buick sponsors PGA tournaments across the country, helping to raise million for charity.

In 1999, Buick signed a sponsorship agreement with Tiger Woods. Part of this agreement ensures Buick's support of the Tiger Woods Foundation.
