We help you
put it into play.
ThreeJack gives your club the materials and personal support to make this part of club life. Choose your local charity and a club contact; we’ll help that person take it from the first announcement to the year’s giving report.
Golfers keep their own tally, with your club’s contact and our team organizing the program together.

The giving
Your club chooses
its local cause.
50%
Local charities
Your club decides which local charity receives half of its annual giving. The choice belongs to the people who know your community.
50%
National causes
The other half is pooled across ThreeJack to support national causes. Every club contributes to its own community and to the wider effort.
Before the first contribution, your club receives the names of the charities, the collection process and a clear explanation of any costs.
Our founder
Doug Fries
Founder · Golfer & philanthropist
An avid golfer and philanthropist, Doug founded ThreeJack to make giving part of a regular round with friends.
His idea puts a dollar behind a moment golfers usually laugh off. As more golfers take part, that small gesture becomes something a club can share in.

A few things to know
What happens after I register my club?
Kit Mueller follows up with your club’s contact to plan the launch. Together, we confirm the charities, giving arrangements and costs, then prepare your member materials. Registration is free and carries no payment commitment.
Why bring ThreeJack to our club?
ThreeJack provides the launch materials and helps your team organize and report its giving. Your club keeps its choice of local charity while joining an effort that also supports national causes. We work personally with your club contact to put the program in place.
Where does the money go?
Annual giving is split equally between local charities chosen by participating clubs and national causes. The national share supports charity; it is not an administration fee. Any operating or processing costs are disclosed before contributions begin.
Can I join if my club hasn’t registered?
Yes. Join as a golfer or nominate your club. Public-course players are welcome. For golfers without a participating club, the local allocation is confirmed before contributions begin.
How do we count three-putts?
Count each hole where you take three putts on the green. Each one is a voluntary dollar for charity. We agree on contribution limits and how to treat four-putts with your club before launch.
