RANDY ROGERS PRESENTS DONATION TO NEW BRAUNFELS NONPROFIT CONNECTIONS

Texas music mainstays Randy Rogers Band donated back into their community Tuesday (12/12) morning, gifting $150,000 to New Braunfels nonprofit organization Connections Individual and Family Services. The organization is dedicated to empowering youth, connecting families, and building futures one youth and one family at a time. Learn more here.

The proceeds were raised at the 14th annual RRB Golf Jam in late October at River Crossing Golf Club in Spring Branch, TX, through a charity concert and a silent/live auction. Randy Rogers Band started the RRB Golf Jam in 2009, aiming to use their platform for the greater good. The group donates the proceeds every year to a different charity in need and have given over $300,000 back to the community in the last two years

In an interview with the New Braunfels’ local newspaper Herald-Zeitung on Tuesday (12/12) morning, Rogers shared this year’s donation to Connections felt like the right timing, as it recently broke ground on a new facility. 

Rogers told the paper, “It’s [Connections] a great cause, and the new facility is going to be absolutely gorgeous and needed for a long time in our community,” Rogers said. “It’s been fun to watch their vision and see their plans … I’m happy to be a part of it.”

While the inaugural event was held in 2009, the annual RRB Golf Jam has more than tripled in size since 2018. The Randy Rogers Family Foundation was founded in 2019 to serve as a collection center, gathering donations from the RRB’s charitable endeavors and supporting community needs.

Randy Rogers Band have a couple Texas stops left in 2023, with fresh dates already announced for the top of 2024. For a full list of tour dates and details on the band’s remaining 2023 shows, click here
