The First Tee of Connecticut is reaching young people with the game of golf. In a world where social pressures are always on, where calm and confidence are hard to access, and where perseverance is a required superpower every day, their kids are growing in new environments that are demanding more from them, and therefore more from us. In these particularly difficult times, it is important as parents, coaches and educators that they encourage our kids and teens to talk through any concerns, fears and anxieties they may be feeling, as they strive to inspire them to face these challenges head-on.
The United States Golf Association has partnered with the American Junior Golf Association and will match the donations I raise for any junior golf association, including the First Tee of Greater Connecticut.
Your dollars will not only support the funding the First Tee of Greater Connecticut, but also will impact other junior golfers as well through the ACE Grant program. Your contributions will help talented junior golfers with a desire to better their life through playing junior golf and earning a college golf scholarship. These juniors lack the financial resources to compete at the national level to gain exposure to these scholarships. They need our help as well. The scholarships these juniors earn through their play change the course of their life and the life of their future family.
My goal is to raise $1,000. Would you consider making a donation and making a difference?
