Tee Up Diversity 
Sponsorship Opportunities
WHY SPONSOR?
The event will raise funds to help organizations dedicated to addressing educational and professional development inequities still evident today with an emphasis on programs relating to the business and game of golf. Celebrate the significant, historical achievements of minorities in the game of golf, while raising money for programs that work to diversify the game. Sponsors will receive premium access to the U.S. Open Championship (See details below).

The Reaching Back Foundation operates as a volunteer organization —100% of your donation fuels our mission. Proceeds from the Foundation’s Special Event will support the following organizations:

HBCU - College Students (Ages 17-25).
The Foundation will provide scholarship aid to young people of color who play golf at Historically Black Colleges and Universities and those who are interested in pursuing careers in the business of golf. These dedicated funds will be administered by the United Negro College Fund.

Lee Elder Scholarship - College Students (Ages 17-25).
The Foundation will establish and endow the Lee Elder Scholarship Fund which will be administered through the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund. The Scholarship will benefit minority college students from Massachusetts who work in the game of golf.

Funds will be used to support local programs that are expanding access to the game for inner city youth. Beneficiaries will include the Urban Golf Club and other grass roots organizations supporting the game of golf.
