The CGA Care Foundation exists to channel the values of fellowship and service into meaningful action. Our mission is to support social initiatives, uplift underserved communities, empower youth, and promote unity and compassion through programs that extend beyond individual interests. While inspired by CGA, the Foundation’s work will embrace broader causes and create lasting opportunities to give back.
A world where integrity, respect, and fellowship inspire lasting change—where communities are strengthened, opportunities are created for future generations, and people are united through compassion and service. The Foundation seeks to be a platform for retirees and members to engage in impactful charitable and social initiatives that extend well beyond CGA.
The CGA Charitable Foundation was created to extend the values of the Champion Golfers Association beyond the course. Built on the traditions of fellowship, integrity, and community, our foundation is committed to making a positive impact both locally and globally. Through fundraising events, youth development programs, and partnerships with charitable organizations, we strive to inspire change and create opportunities for those in need.
Every swing, every putt, and every round with CGA now carries a greater purpose — helping us build stronger communities and brighter futures. Together, we are champions in golf and champions in giving.
