The Marriott Bonvoy Charity Golf Tournament 2025 was held at the scenic Prestige Golfshire Club, in partnership with JW Marriott Bengaluru Prestige Golfshire Resort & Spa. The event brought together golfers, business leaders, influencers, and hospitality professionals to celebrate both sporting excellence and community giving.
Led by the Marriott India Business Council, the tournament concluded with a Charity Auction Dinner supporting Rising Star Outreach, a non-profit that empowers children and families impacted by leprosy in India.
Acclaimed golfer and Arjuna Award recipient Shiv Kapur once again lent his support, joining participants on the course and at the auction dinner, making the experience more special for everyone.
Building on last year’s success, where over ₹75 lakhs were raised to establish The Marriott Wing at a Rising Star Outreach school in Raxaul, this year’s tournament raised an outstanding ₹1.14 crore. The funds will further support people affected by leprosy in Bihar and Chennai, impacting the lives of 732 children with access to education and opportunity.
Kiran Andicot, SVP – Development & Operations, South Asia, Marriott International, said, “We’re thrilled to host the prestigious Marriott Bonvoy Charity Golf Tournament once again, bringing together golf fans, partners, and guests for an unforgettable experience. This event goes beyond the game—outstanding turnout and our auction gala dinner showcased how sport, when paired with purpose, creates real change. Thanks to the incredible support of our guests and partners, and the inspiring presence of Shiv Kapur, as we continue our mission to turn hope into opportunity, strengthen communities, and make every swing count.”
Sharing his thoughts, Shiv Kapur said, “It’s always a privilege to return to the Marriott Bonvoy Charity Golf Tournament. The energy, the passion for golf, and the spirit of giving make this event truly unique. Beyond the game, what stands out is the opportunity to contribute to a meaningful cause. Supporting Rising Star Outreach through this platform makes the sport even more impactful, and I’m honored to be part of it.”
