The 2007 Regions Charity Classic, presented by Bruno's, donated more than $688,000 to charitable organizations in Alabama. Over its 16-year history, the tournament has donated almost $10 million to Alabama and Northwest Florida charities.

As the only children's hospital in Northwest Florida, Sacred Heart Children's Hospital has taken care of sick and injured babies and children for over 39 years - regardless of their ability to pay. Children's provides a range of children's services in partnership with Nemours Children's Clinic, which provides many pediatric specialists to the region, and Pediatrix, whose neonatologists provide care to critically ill and premature babies in the area's only Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU.)
