AUGUSTA, Ga. ( ) – On February 4, 2026, a check presentation ceremony highlighted the donation of Border Bowl XIII’s proceeds to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Augusta.

This year’s event successfully generated over $15,000 in funds.

“For 13 years, the Border Bowl has been a remarkable tradition, channeling support towards the Ronald McDonald House,” remarked David Jacobsen, CEO of the Augusta chapter. “This year, the contributions reached $17,000, which will cover 125 family night stays. It’s the generosity and compassion of our community that makes this possible, and we are immensely thankful to McDonald’s and Johannesen’s Sporting Goods.”
