National Day of HOPE Fundraising Back on Through November 30
National Day of HOPE fundraising is back on! Fundraising is now open through Tuesday, November 30. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we hope you'll consider the generous giving that we've already seen from folks throughout the month... all with the goal of positively impacting the lives of our nation's veterans.
PGA HOPE Kentucky (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) is the flagship military program of the Kentucky Golf Foundation, providing access to life-changing opportunities through golf for our nation's heroes. PGA HOPE introduces golf to Veterans to enhance their physical, mental, social and emotional well-being. Kentucky’s PGA HOPE programs provide all Veterans with FREE golf instruction taught by local PGA Professionals!
The HOPE program is designed to provide golf as a therapeutic rehabilitation tool for all military Veterans. The lifetime sport of golf has proven to be an excellent outlet for activity and competition, but also allows Veterans to assimilate back into their community through the social interaction the game provides. Sessions include instruction, camaraderie and playing opportunities.
There are currently two (2) PGA HOPE Chapters in Kentucky, with the opportunity to expand in the coming years. Over 150 Veterans have been impacted by the program since its inception in 2018 and we can’t wait to grow that number with your support!
To join us in this effort and enhance the lives of numerous Commonwealth Veterans, you will be able to create your personal fundraising page with your own goal to go towards PGA HOPE Kentucky’s goal of $5,000. You can create a page dedicated for yourself, your club, or a group of friends!
