PGA Hope gives you free starter golf lessons at a course near you, once you finish the lessons the pro will give you a set of clubs, bag, and other required equipment at no cost to you. You can sign up at a course near you from the link above. Even if you have never played golf this is a good way to get out and have some fun. The September registration is open now.

What is PGA Hope?

PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) is the flagship military program of PGA REACH, the charitable foundation of the PGA of America. PGA HOPE introduces golf to Veterans and Active Duty Military to enhance their physical, mental, social and emotional well-being.

The program introduces the game of golf through a developmental 6-8 week curriculum, led by PGA Professionals trained in adaptive golf and military cultural competency. All programs are funded by PGA REACH and supplemented by PGA Section Foundations, so the cost of programming is free to all Veterans.

PGA HOPE has a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which enables direct referrals to the PGA HOPE program as a form of therapy.
