Alpha Research Group Joins Folds of Honor at TPC Treviso Bay
Supporting the families of those who served — one scholarship at a time.
This May, Alpha Research Group is proud to sponsor the 7th Annual Folds of Honor Charity Golf Tournament at TPC Treviso Bay in Naples, Florida.
For those unfamiliar, Folds of Honor provides educational scholarships to the children and spouses of fallen or disabled American military service members and first responders. Since 2007, they’ve awarded roughly 73,000 scholarships totaling over $340 million in educational impact. They carry a 4-star Charity Navigator rating, with 91 cents of every dollar going directly to their scholarship program. This isn’t a charity that talks about impact — it delivers it.
TPC Treviso Bay has been one of the standout venues in the Folds of Honor network, raising over $685,000 across its first six tournaments and earning Top 100 Performer recognition. Last year alone, the event generated $225,000 — funding approximately 45 scholarships. The course ranks second in the entire state of Florida for funds raised through the program.
We’re honored to join sponsors like Tito’s Handmade Vodka in supporting this year’s event on May 9th, 2026.
Why This Matters to Us
Alpha Research Group operates at the intersection of emerging technology, defense, and finance. Many of the people we work alongside — in cybersecurity, intelligence, and defense contracting — have served or come from military families. The mission here isn’t abstract for us. Education is the most durable form of support you can give a family navigating loss or hardship, and Folds of Honor has built one of the most efficient vehicles in the country to deliver it.
The Tournament
The day begins with a 9:00 a.m. shotgun start and includes a flag-folding ceremony, a luncheon honoring attending veterans, and a presentation from a scholarship recipient. There’s also a live auction, silent auction, raffle, and the signature fire engine ball drop.
For a feel of what the day looks like, here’s the highlight reel from last year’s event:
How You Can Help
You don’t need to be on the fairway to make a difference. Folds of Honor is accepting donations and auction contributions through the tournament:

Florida is the third-largest recipient state in the program, with 845 scholarships and nearly $4 million in funds awarded for the current academic year alone. Every dollar counts.
A Note from the Founder
This one is personal. I’m a combat veteran of the United States Marine Corps, a former member of the USMC Honor Guard, and a service-disabled veteran. I’ve stood at those ceremonies. I know what the flag folding means — not as symbolism, but as memory.
The families that Folds of Honor supports aren’t statistics. They’re the spouses and children of people who made a choice most never will. Education doesn’t undo that sacrifice, but it honors it in the most lasting way I can think of — by opening doors for the people they left behind.
If this cause resonates with you, I’d encourage you to act on it.
This is one of those causes.
