WE ARE GOLF is now accepting applications for a newly created Grassroots Grants Program! This program is being administered through the Youth & Adult Player Development Work Group within the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Golf Industry Collaboration.
The purpose of the Grassroots Grants Program (GGP) is to support 501c(3) charitable organizations or programs dedicated to increasing golf participation among those who are underrepresented in the sport: Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Indigenous communities as well as women, LBGTQ+ individuals, Veterans, and individuals with disabilities.
Applications will be accepted beginning May 7, 2021 and will end the earlier of: (a) WE ARE GOLF’s receipt of 100 applications; or (b) May 28, 2021. The first phase of this Grassroots Grants Program will award a combined total of $150,000 to successful applicants, who may receive individual awards of up to $10,000.
An official outline of the Grassroots Grants Program funding and eligibility, application, and more information can be found HERE. Additionally, please submit any questions or comments to grassrootsgrants@worldgolffoundation.org
