Mission

To improve the lives of young people through the game of golf and to support organizations that enrich the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities by providing grants, hosting fundraising events, and forming partnerships.

About Walrus and Wine

Walrus and Wine is a public charity that raises funds through an annual multi-day wine-and-golf fundraising weekend and related auctions to support youth golf initiatives and organizations serving people with intellectual disabilities.

Founded in 2024, the organization operates primarily as an event-driven grantmaker and sponsor, partnering with regional nonprofits (for example First Tee North Coast and I Got This Foundation) to direct proceeds toward programming that promotes healthy activity, mentorship, community living options, and inclusion.
