The Warpo Open Golf Tournament, the baby of Warpo Charity Benefits, Inc., has it's roots in a close-knit group of friends, some dating back as far as first grade, and a guy known as Warpo.

As Warpo and his friends matured and started looking at the world around them, they discovered that many children would never get the chance to realize success and happiness in life without a little help. They decided to do something about it.

Forming Warpo Charity Benefits, Inc., they launched the first annual Warpo Open Golf Tournament back in 1993, to raise money for The St. Cloud Children's Home (SCCH), a nationally recognized facility that provides programs for "problem" youth.

Last year, the Warpo Open Golf Tournament had a great year, raising about $34,000 for the St. Cloud Children's Home. With almost a half a million dollars in contributions to date (now, the all time leading benefactor for SCCH), Warpo Charity Benefits, Inc. was honored with Catholic Charity's (the St. Cloud Children's Home parent company) Good Samaritan Award for 2005. Warpo Charity Benefits hopes to have a great 2009 and try and help these kids, before it's too late.

Warpo and his handful of volunteers receive no salaries, benefits, or perks and pay full fare to participate in their own functions.
