Ideal Applicant
A community-focused nonprofit with ties to PGA Tour event markets (especially Virginia and Florida) that can receive general operating support and demonstrate local impact in youth development, sports, veterans, health, or arts.
Good Fit
- • Programs serving communities where PGA TOUR events or fundraising campaigns operate (notably Virginia or Florida).
- • Clear capacity to absorb general support or event-driven gifts rather than highly restricted project funding.
- • History of local partnerships or participation in event-based fundraising campaigns.
- • Track record as an established charity (not brand-new) with basic financial transparency.
Geography
Grants were made across 14 states in the latest year, showing multi-state reach, but 57% of dollars were concentrated in one state (Virginia) with a substantial secondary share to Florida.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 83 distinct recipients and a steady 73–83 grants each year, with both recurring grantees (about 50) and many new entrants, indicating a broad and diverse recipient set despite some top-recipient concentration.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of applicant turnover is available: roughly 33 new recipients in 2024 (about 40%) and prior-year new grantees, which suggests unfamiliar organizations do enter the portfolio even though no formal application instructions are posted.
