Forty local, Treasure Valley charities, received donations from the 2025 Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron thanks to the Mondelez Tickets Support Charity Program which allowed ticket purchasers to choose which local charity would receive 100% of the money from their ticket purchase.

In total, the 2025 Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron generated more than $3 Million for Charities. The other 30 Mondelez Tickets Support Charity organizations who were not in attendance will receive their donations in the next week, and the Albertsons Companies Foundation will continue to distribute funds from the 2025 Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron throughout the year. “The Albertsons Companies Foundation and our entire Albertsons team are incredibly proud of what’s made possible through the Mondelez Tickets Support Charity program,” said Brad Street, President of Albertsons’ Mountain West Division. “Thanks to our amazing customers, partners, and volunteers, the Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron continues to fuel real change for Treasure Valley nonprofits. We’re proud to support the organizations doing such important work for Idaho families.” The representatives from the local charities in attendance were very excited about the positive impact these donations will have on their organizations. The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Idaho and Women’s and Children’s Alliance are two examples of organizations that will be able to greatly extend their services due to the donations they received. "For 38 years now, Idaho families have relied on the Ronald McDonald House for assistance as they navigate the stress and uncertainty of having an ill or injured child,” said Nancee Bakken, Executive Director of RMHC Idaho. “In 2025 alone, we were honored to provide more than 2,000 families with over 9,000 nights of lodging comfort, and support. Our ability to meet the growing demand for our services is only possible because of generous contributions like this one. I’d like to thank Albertsons, the Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron and the Mondelez Tickets Support Charity program for their remarkable support which strengthens our ability to remove barriers and reduce burdens so families can remain close to the medical care their children need. We are deeply grateful for this incredible, long-standing partnership and the compassionate community behind it. Together, we are ensuring every family facing the unimaginable challenge of a child’s illness or injury has a true home away from home with warm meals, comforting spaces, and moments of peace.” “One of the most important services we offer is our safe, secure shelter. Housing women and children fleeing domestic abuse and violence, this critical and unduplicated service in Ada County saves lives,” said Women’s and Children’s Alliance CEO, Bea Black. “Being able to provide shelter for our clients, at no charge for up to seven months, provides them a chance to begin their healing journey without living in constant fear. We are so grateful for this funding which is due to a generous community and the support of Albertsons, the Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron and the Mondelez Tickets Support Charity program.” Following the Mondelez Tickets Support Charity donation distributions, Hillcrest Country Club General Manager, Nolan Halterman, made an additional donation of $25,000 to First Tee Idaho on behalf of Hillcrest Country Club and its members. The donation, which results from Hillcrest Country Club’s partnership as host of the Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron, was in addition to the $38,258 which First Tee Idaho received from the 2025 ticket sales.

In front of 800 tournament sponsors, local media partners and special guests at the Hershey Company Pro-Am Dinner, Albertsons and Chevron executives announced over $3 MILLION was raised for charity from this year’s Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron. The donation brings the 35-year charity total to $39 MILLION, a record on the Korn Ferry Tour.
“We are thrilled to announce over $3 Million dollars for deserving charities again this year thanks to the amazing support of Albertsons, Chevron, our treasured sponsors, the great fans of Boise and our 800 hard-working volunteers,” said Jeff Sanders, CEO of Jeff Sanders Entertainment, the event’s management company. “We look forward to entertaining our fans in Boise this week, showcasing PGA TOUR golf by day and sold-out concerts by night.” The Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron is the first event of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, featuring the top 156 Korn Ferry Tour players as they compete to earn their PGA TOUR cards for the 2025 PGA TOUR season. So far this PGA TOUR season, 30 tournaments have been won by players who came through Boise on the Korn Ferry Tour including the top ranked player in the world Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, Bryson DeChambeau, Chris Kirk, Akshay Bhatia and more. Again this year, the event will feature three concerts after golf, August 22-24 on the 18th fairway at Hillcrest Country Club. The concerts will kick off following golf on Thursday, August 22nd with Jon Pardi. Currently headlining his worldwide Mr. Saturday Night World Tour, Pardi recently released new music from an upcoming project, “Cowboys and Plowboys” ft. Luke Bryan, as the follow up single to his sixth career #1 on Country radio, “Your Heart Or Mine,” off of his ACM Album of the Year nominated project, Mr. Saturday Night. The album earned Pardi back-to-back Album of the Year nominations and reunited the producing team of Bart Butler, Ryan Gore and Pardi, the same team behind the boards of his critically acclaimed CMA and ACM Album of the Year nominated project, Heartache Medication. Heartache Medication debuted among the top albums on Billboard’s Country Albums chart and was named in 2019 Rolling Stone’s “Best Album of the Year” and by the Los Angeles Times as one of the (Top 10) “Best Albums of the Year.” Following golf on Friday night, Daryl Hall will take the stage. Daryl Hall is a modern-day renaissance man, an inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the best-selling duo of all time, the star of his very own award-winning web series-turned-TV staple, Live from Daryl’s House, as well as a successful venue owner with “Daryl’s House,” a restored venue and live music space in Pawling, N.Y. Since signing his first record deal in 1972, the Philadelphia soul man is still achieving career milestones more than four decades later, continuing to perform with his band to sold out venues everywhere. On Saturday night, Goo Goo Dolls will rock the stage. Formed by Rzeznik and Takac in Buffalo, NY during 1986, Goo Goo Dolls have quietly broken records, contributed a string of staples to the American songbook, connected to millions of fans, and indelibly impacted popular music for three-plus decades. Beyond selling 15 million records worldwide, the group has garnered four GRAMMY® Award nominations and nearly a dozen platinum & gold singles combined, and seized a page in the history books by achieving 16 number one and Top 10 hits. As a result, they hold the all-time radio record for “Most Top 10 Singles.” Among a string of hits, “Iris” clutched #1 on the Hot 100 for 18 straight weeks and would be named “#1 Top 40 Song of the Last 20 Years.” On the heels of going viral on TikTok, the track recently achieved seven-times-platinum status and re-entered the Billboard charts, yet again proving the timelessness of Goo Goo Dolls’ illustrious catalog. Tickets for the concert days are sold out but Sunday tickets are still available for only $10. The concerts are sponsored by Smithfield Foods on Thursday, Tyson Foods on Friday and Wayne-Sanderson Farms on Saturday. In addition to the great golf and concert admission, all tickets will include admission to five on-course hospitality venues - the Albertsons Wine Bar & Chill Zone, Corona Premier Beach Club, Michelob Ultra Fan Pavilion & Beers Fore Birdies featuring the Albertsons Signature Café, Coors Light Fan Deck, and the United Rentals Heroes Outpost.
