TESTIMONIALS

Janet Ferguson

COLLEGE GOLF INFORMATION SESSION A SUCCESS

"Thank you for hosting the College Golf Information Session. As a parent, I found the sessions and materials to be extremely informative and very helpful. Never having been exposed to all the ins and outs of College Athletics, I learned a great deal and feel better prepared to help guide my son."

OUTREACH DEPARTMENT - NEW FOR 2010

The Outreach Department manages or participates in community events that create awareness for the Foundation. By participating in events around the state, the Foundation is able to identify potential new Site Coordinators, new program sites or youth organizations, generate additional donor support, develop relationships, and more. Outreach events range in size and scope from community festivals to corporate or association conferences and are typically designed to benefit families and children, organization members, allied associations, and/or the general public.

LEADERSHIP LINKS - AJGA MEMBERS GIVE BACK TO CHARITY

"Leadership Links was very easy to become involved in! All one needs to do is select the benefitting organization and play in AJGA tournaments. There is no additional time commitment to participate, but the small effort it takes to sign up goes a long way for the charity."

THINKING OUTSIDE THE TEE BOX PROVIDES MENTORING

“The girls are focusing on jobs that are less traditional and are fearless about exploring those interests. Clearly the opportunities being provided though programs like the Kids Golf Foundation have influenced that attitude."
