Twenty-two Veterans 🇺🇸 take their own lives every day in America. 22. That’s a staggering number. Seasonal and winter-time depression is a major catalyst in the suicide of these heroes.
Through the reimagining and revitalization of Normandie Golf Club, Birdies 4 Bipolar is helping create a space rooted in community, purpose, and healing.
As part of the Normandie Reimagined project, Birdies 4 Bipolar will build an indoor Veterans Golf Simulator designed to help Gateway-area Veterans 🇺🇸 combat seasonal depression by using golf as a form of recreational therapy and connection.
This simulator will provide a year-round home for Veterans to gather, train, and support one another—while also serving as a key fundraising initiative to further the mission of Birdies 4 Bipolar.
If you’d like to contribute toward building this winter home for our Veterans at Normandie Golf Club, please consider donating below.
