About SMT Events
SMT Events was created by Mike Tait who joined the PGA of America in 1978 and has run, helped organize many thousands of events, fundraisers and golf outings since then.
Mike incorporated SMT Events and Fundraising Inc. in 2009 after the loss of his mother to lung cancer, with the singular goal of raising as much money as possible for charities and organizations in need through golf. It has since blossomed dramatically to fill the needs of all types of fundraisers from Bars and Carnivals to Fly Fishing Fundraisers and Gala’s all the way to School Sports Boosters and Virtual Events.
Since May of 2009, we have helped many hundreds of events in 6 States and multiple countries raise well over $14 million dollars for causes that were near to their hearts.
We have created a wildly successful business model unlike anything else on the market and we add to it on a regular basis. A business model where unlike all others, we actually give back 100% of the money that we raise to the charities and the organizations that we are asked to perform at each and every day.
That’s right. We don’t give back a small percentage of the money we collect and we don’t make you wait days, weeks and months for a check. You get 100% of the money we raise the same day we raise it!
Our only goals are to make your events more money and to make your day memorable.
SMT Events supplies your event with your choice of well over 30 fun and unique on course games that every guest can actually win. Our games really require no exceptional talent and many require no talent at all. That means that anyone can win and everyone donates.
To make it even easier, we also bring all of our own trained staff to interact with your guests and professionally raise the funds that you need. In other words, it’s your day. You should enjoy it!
We supply the cash and prizes for all of our games to your winners.
Our wildly popular and fun Scratch Cards, wristbands and Vegas or Reno vacation stays are something most fundraisers choose to add to their event as well.
FREE online event registration and FREE event photography is available if you want to use it.
We provide a wonderful FREE and UNIQUE Consignment Silent Auction and/or Live Auction service for any and all fundraisers.
If you are looking for a Paddle Auction or a “Fund-a-Need” Auction, we are happy to perform that service for you as well, and so much more…
We can help you find a facility and are happy to work with you on how to get more golfers and sponsors. Anything you need help with, we can help.
There is a reason that we were awarded the 2011 Golf Business Innovator of The Year Award and we are equally proud of the almost 100 customer testimonials shared on the website.
Give us a call or drop us an email to discuss your fundraiser, your thoughts, needs or something that you would like us to create for you. We are here to help you.
