It all starts with giving our members access to golf for $5 or less at more than 1,200 participating courses, but it doesn’t end there.

Youth on Course provides access to summer job opportunities through our caddie and high school internship programs, as well as access to higher education through college scholarships.

The Youth on Course scholarship program began in 2008 with a single award recipient receiving $5,000. To date, Youth on Course has awarded a total of $1,725,550 to 240 students. 94% of our scholarship recipients complete their college program.

High school seniors with a minimum GPA of 3.0, who will be attending a four-year college or university, are eligible to apply. Finalists undergo an interview process with Youth on Course staff and board members, and award recipients are chosen based on merit and financial need.

For a minimum investment of $1,000 per year for four years, you can provide one of our participants the greatest gift of all - the opportunity to achieve his or her goals at a college of their choosing. Your scholarship gift will follow the scholarship recipient all four years of his or her collegiate career. Funds may be combined to make a larger impact for individual scholars.

Youth on Course is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit. Gifts are tax-deductible within the guidelines of the law.

Are you interested in supporting a deserving high school student and keeping them “on course” to earning a college degree?
