He set a goal 15 years ago, now...

Donation protected


15 years ago, Josh said he wanted to play golf on the PGA Tour. Last week, Josh finished 17th out of 84 players at the first stage of Q School which qualified him to go to the next stage in October!!! (Q School is a series of qualifying tournaments to get on the Web.com Tour, and is the ONLY path to the PGA Tour). This was stage 1 of 4 total that gets him on tour next year.

He shot rounds of 72, 70 and 71 to finish 3 under par and make it through comfortably. Top 20 is really good!!!

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET TO THE NEXT STAGE!!!

We now need to raise $2500 in 10 days (by 5:00pm Eastern Time, September 23, 2015) to pay his Entry Fee for the next stage of Q School, and further funds to cover the travel and accommodation and make sure he has his caddy there for the tournament in October.

Josh is very lucky! In December 2014, he walked away from an accident that could have left him paralyzed and ended his golf career. Instead of giving up, he chose to be UNSTOPPABLE and last week experienced the highest point of his golf career to date -- he qualified for the next stage of Q School!! 

Competing in professional golf tournaments is Josh's job. And like any other professional sportsperson, he needs sponsors to travel and compete. We are working diligently on securing a true corporate sponsor, however until then we have only 10 days to raise the first $2500. Until we have a corporate sponsor, it is YOU, our friends and family who will make it happen. We cannot stop now, we are too close.

LET'S MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!! Please donate now. Every dollar gets us closer. We appreciate any and all support to get Josh through Q School so he may continue his journey to the PGA Tour.
