We’re proud to share the PGA of America REACH Foundation Fiscal Year 2025 Impact Report – a reflection of the meaningful progress we’ve made together over the past year. As we continue our mission to make golf accessible to all, this report highlights the collective efforts of our PGA of America Golf Professionals, partners, and supporters nationwide.
This year, we’ve built on the momentum of our Championship activations and celebrated over a decade of success with PGA HOPE, providing Veterans and active-duty military with opportunities for connection and growth. Through PGA Jr. League, we’re opening doors for youth to experience the game, while PGA WORKS is helping to shape the next generation of leaders in our industry.
The stories and milestones featured in this report go beyond numbers – they showcase real impact of our programs and the power of golf to transform lives. We are deeply grateful for the ongoing commitment of everyone who shares our vision for a more inclusive golf community.
We hope you enjoy exploring the Impact Report to see how, together, we’re creating lasting opportunities and making a difference, one life at a time.
