About ThreeJack
Golf brings us
together.
ThreeJack puts a little generosity into that time together.
A three-putt is one of the few things golfers of every ability have in common. It earns a groan, usually a comment from a playing partner, and now a chance to give a dollar for charity.
We’re building ThreeJack around the friendships and routines that make people love club golf. Each club chooses its local charity, and we help it make giving part of regular play. Half of annual giving goes to those local charities; half supports national causes.
Our founder
Doug Fries
Founder · Golfer & philanthropist
Doug founded ThreeJack to bring his love of golf and philanthropy into the same round.
His idea starts with an act of giving any golfer can take part in. A dollar for a three-putt gives the group a shared purpose, and gives the club a tradition it can carry from round to round.
Doug previously served as regional president of Mellon’s Wealth Management group in Las Vegas. In a 2007 interview, he spoke about the personal relationships behind his work with families and the opportunity to use wealth for the good of a community.
“Dealing with wealth leads to altruistic questions on greater good for family and community.”
Doug Fries, Nevada Business Journal, August 2007, page 11
