Donations for Profit

While working as the director of junior golf at a local golf course, I was put in charge of fund-raising.This task required me to spend numerous hours calling and visiting local businesses, seeking their donations for our end-of-summer golf tournament.After weeks of campaigning for money, I was pleased to have raised $3,000 for the tournament.The money was to be used for prizes, food, and trophies for the two-day Tournament of Champions.

I notified the golf course manager of my intentions to spend the money at a local golf store to purchase prizes for the participants.Upon hearing of my decision to spend all of the contribution money on the tournament, my manager asked me to spend only $1,500.I was confused by this request because I had encouraged various companies to contribute by telling them that their money would all be spent on the children registered in the tournament.My manager, however, told me that the golf course should pocket $1,500 as pure profit.He said the economy has been struggling and the course could use the extra money to boost profits.

I was deeply angered that I had given my word to these companies and now the golf course was going to pocket half the donations.Feeling that my manager was in the wrong, I went to see him again, this time with an ultimatum.Either the money was to be spent entirely on the tournament, or I would return all the checks personally, citing my manager's plan as the reason.In response, he said that I could spend the money any way I desired, but he would appreciate it if I were frugal with the money.I spent it all.

I was wanting to know what other stakeholder is affected, I've already got that the children and the donors are affected, I just need to know one for stakeholder that is negatively affected.
