The First Tee of Greater Seattle

First Tee - Greater Seattle hosted one of the top 25 largest PGA Junior League Golf programs in the country in 2024, with more than 180 kids playing weekly games with their teammates. I want to make sure we have scholarships available so that any young person can take part in this life-changing experience.

$2,500 would provide 10+ kids with full scholarships for 2025!

Our Mission: To impact the lives of young people from all backgrounds by providing educational programs that build character, instill life-enhancing values, and promote healthy choices through the game of golf.

More than 60% of girls drop out of sports before they turn 16. Through initiatives like LPGA*USGA Girls Golf and First Tee - Greater Seattle Girls' Golf program, we can better provide the opportunity to learn the game of golf in an environment for girls, led by women. Many young girls and women do not have the opportunity to learn from people that look like themselves in their lives. With your donation, we are that much closer to our goal of equal participation! In 2024, we were fortunate to serve over 4,100 participants and 39% of those participants were female. Your donation goes toward our coach initiative, recruiting women and BIPOC coaches and volunteers to our weekly classes, providing our kids & teens with access to green grass facilities and fun events that build lifelong lasting relationships.

Thanks for supporting me in reaching my goal of raising money and having fun while doing it! Your donation goes to balls, range and course time for under privileged youth who would otherwise not be able to afford learning golf.

I started golfing at the age of 3 using a plastic set of blue golf clubs. I found that I enjoyed it, and wasn’t completely horrible at it. When I turned five, I got my first set of golf clubs and was enrolled in First Tee classes. First Tee taught me so much right from the start. I built up my swing through First Tee classes, learned golf etiquette (trust me, it takes a while) and life lessons. I want to thank First Tee for all the lessons I’ve learned, for all the friends I’ve made, and for helping me find the confidence to get to where I am now. First Tee doesn’t just teach golf, it teaches lessons like responsibility, compassion, and determination. I want to raise money for First Tee to help more kids get the experience that I did. Any donation will help make an impact to this cause which means so much to me.

The First Tee of Greater Seattle mission is to impact the lives of young people from all backgrounds by providing educational programs that build character, instill life-enhancing values and promote healthy choices through the game of golf.

Girls' Golf is an LPGA program that empowers girls of all ages and allows them to learn golf in a welcoming environment, from women they can look up to. First Tee - Greater Seattle aims to have 50/50 participation of females and males, and last year, 38% of all participants were female - the second highest in our history! We are on our way to equal participation and with your donation, we can find more ways to reach girls in the Greater Seattle area and beyond.
