United States Golf Association (USGA) -- “For the Good of the Game” Grants Initiative
The United States Golf Association’s "For the Good of the Game" Grants Initiative in an effort to make golf more affordable and accessible. Through this effort, the USGA supports organizations that use the game and its values as a vehicle to improve the quality of life for individuals and for society in general. This annual initiative focuses on positively impacting young people (particularly minorities, girls, economically disadvantaged, and others with limited access to the game of golf) and individuals with disabilities through instructional programming and golf facility construction projects, as well as caddie and other work-based programs.
Award amounts vary. Projects which address the following areas are eligible for funding: Golf course access and practice range access; Golf instruction; Golf equipment, including adaptive golf equipment for individuals with disabilities; Transportation provided for participants to attend programming; and certain construction costs for alternative, beginner-friendly golf courses and golf facilities in areas where there are obstacles to affordable access to the game.
Deadline: December 2, 2008
Please Note: The Center for Health and Health Care in Schools (CHHCS) does not administer this funding opportunity.
