“I’ve never been one to announce what we do,” Scottie Scheffler had said when asked about what he would do with the $500,000 he would get for participating in the 2025 Ryder Cup. While he chose to stay out of the spotlight in that regard, a recent act of his quietly revealed the same generosity that drives him. A recent post from the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation offers a clear example of this generosity in action.

The Jordan Spieth Family Foundation’s 2025 Spieth & Friends online Auction + Raffle just went live a couple of days ago. The organization shared a post on its Instagram handle, with a caption that read, “The wait is over! Let’s give back while going for something amazing! 🎉 Our 2025 Spieth & Friends online Auction + Raffle is LIVE — featuring incredible packages, from once-in-a-lifetime experiences to exclusive memorabilia. Every bid supports the JSFF and our four pillars: Individuals with Special Needs, Junior Golf, Military Families & Veterans, and Pediatric Cancer. Link in bio to explore, bid, share and make an impact today! 🧡”

A wide range of items was available for auction, as shared in the post. However, what caught the attention of most fans was an item that made World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler a part of the fellow Texan’s personal project.

The list of items included a golf bag signed by Scottie Scheffler. Some other items on the list included Presidents Cup tickets, his and her Lucchese boots, Cotton Bowl tickets, a Fullswing K.I.T., playing at Panther National, and an Auberge overnight stay.

Each of these packages not only offers unique experiences for fans but also directly supports the foundation’s charitable mission.

The Spieth & Friends auction is an annual charity event hosted by the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation (JSFF) to raise funds in support of its mission. It leads to a concert event to engage the community and golf fans alike. Last year, the multi-platinum and CMA award-winning country artist Jordan Davis performed at the concert. Prior to that, ACM award winner and number one chart-topper Jake Owen was the key singer. This year, it will be an intimate concert experience with Chris Young. In fact, Spieth’s noble efforts don’t end there.

Jordan Spieth also hosts the golf event Crush It! This is a junior golf tournament created by the golf company Invited and Spieth. The tournament aims to raise funds for the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation. Since its inception, the foundation has donated $10 million to causes within its four pillars. Like Scheffler, he is also someone who donates quietly.

“I’ve never been one to focus on the dollar amounts we’ve given, but milestones like this deserve to be celebrated, especially because so much of it comes from the amazing people who support our foundation,” Spieth said after the first Crush It! event. “That was our first endowment, and hopefully the first of many. The idea is to build long-term partnerships with organizations we really believe in,” he continued.

This year, with Scheffler silently participating in this personal project, it is likely to get a significant boost. But it is not the first time Scheffler has given to a cause. This year, the PGA of America decided to give $500,000 to the members of the American Ryder Cup Team for participation. Out of this, $300,000 was intended to go to a charity of the golfers’ choice, and $200,000 was meant for them to use as they saw fit.

When asked about how Scheffler will use this money, he said, “I don’t like to give charitable dollars for some kind of recognition. We have something planned for the money that we’ll be receiving. I think it’s a really cool thing that the PGA of America has empowered us to do. I have a deep passion for the city of Dallas, I have a deep passion for the organizations that we support at home, and I’m excited to be able to take this money and be able to do some good in our local community.”

In fact, Scheffler is associated with various such events. He actively maintains ties to many other charitable organizations.

Scottie Scheffler’s philanthropic efforts

Scheffler, a 19-time PGA Tour winner, has consistently used his platform to give back. Among his contributions is a notable $50,000 donation to the Northern Texas PGA (NTPGA) Foundation, supporting junior golf programs. He has also backed Triumph Over Kid Cancer. This helped raise funds for pediatric bone cancer research, which is a charity that has raised over $3 million since its inception. Scheffler’s generosity extends across the Dallas community.

He has donated $20,000 each to the West Dallas Community School, Advocates for Community Transformation, Human Impact, and Behind Every Door Ministries. Beyond monetary gifts, he has engaged in memorable hands-on activities, too. Activities such as taking children from a Dallas charity shopping for golf gear at the PGA Tour Superstore during the holidays have been in the mix.

The World No. 1 has also given back to his alma mater, the Texas Longhorns golf program, supporting its facilities and programs. He has also joined fellow golfers, including Justin Thomas, in fundraising events. For instance, he’s been a part of the Renaissance Club Charitable Foundation in Scotland.

Over the years, Jordan Spieth’s foundation has raised significant funds to support families, children, and communities in need. This year, with Scheffler quietly joining the effort, that mission feels both stronger and more personal, highlighting a generosity that often happens without fanfare.
