Local charities are the biggest winners of the Sony Open in Hawaii!  Since the inaugural event in 1999, tournament host Friends of Hawaii Charities has awarded nearly $22 million dollars in charity grants to more than 350 local not-for-profits serving Hawaii’s most at-risk, women, children, the elderly, and impoverished. 

Last year Friends of Hawaii Charities distributed a record $1.3 million in charitable grants to 130 Hawaii non-profit organizations from funds raised through the 2021 Sony Open in Hawaii with support from long-time charity partner, The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, title sponsor Sony Group Corporation, host site Waialae Country Club, and state sponsor Hawaii Tourism Authority.  Golf and giving changes the lives of many in Hawaii!
