Richmond, Virginia (Tuesday, January 10, 2006) ~ The PGA TOUR announced today that the PGA TOUR Wives Association has decided to make a Ten Thousand Dollar ($10,000.00) donation to Richmond's own Virginia Home for Boys and Girls (VHBG).

The PGA TOUR Wives Association was introduced to the Home in May of 2005 during the Henrico County Open Presented By Saxon Capital, Inc. (HCO), the Nationwide Tour event held annually at The Dominion Club in Glen Allen, VA. The Virginia Home for Boys and Girls also is the HCO's own charity and is the beneficiary of proceeds from the Tournament each year.

In May of 2005, while their husband's were preparing for the Henrico County Open Presented By Saxon Capital, Inc, the Nationwide Tour wives were taken on a tour of the Home. The Virginia Home for Boys and Girls provides residential care and supportive services to at-risk boys and girls. The Home provides five primary services: Residential Services, the John G. Wood School, Youth Emergency Shelter, Clinical Services (which include family services) and Pathfinder Independent Living Services. By meeting with residents Marco Harper, Chris Morgenroth, Mawut Dang and Felisha Feaster, the wives found out firsthand exactly how the facility is impacting the lives of its residents. So touched by the impact that the Home has on the community and the children, the Nationwide Tour Wives immediately made a special monetary donation, in addition to the most recent donation.

As a kick-off to 2006, The PGA TOUR wives met to review all the requests for donations from other worthy causes across the entire nation. The Virginia Home for Boys and Girls was chosen for this significant donation from among more than 60 other charities.

The Henrico County Open Presented By Saxon Capital, Inc. is very proud to have had their charity chosen for further donation. David Maraghy, Executive Director of the HCO, noted: "We are so pleased that we could be a part of this rewarding process. In addition to the financial assistance so generously provided by the TOUR wives, we were able to provide national exposure for the Home through a special feature shown on The Golf Channel, thereby reaching more than 60 million households across the United States".
