About
Sydney's Story
SPONSOR ONE PARTICIPANT. INSPIRE A LIFETIME.
Give $40. Give one participant access to an entire First Tee - Fort Worth session.
For more than 20 years, First Tee - Fort Worth has helped thousands of young people build confidence, character, and resilience through the game of golf. Today, we're the largest First Tee chapter in Texas because our community believes every child deserves the opportunity to succeed.
Each time a participant attends a First Tee - Fort Worth class, we pay the golf course so they have a quality place to learn, grow, and belong. The average cost of providing that access is $40 per participant for an eight-week session.
Rather than passing that cost on to families, we rely on generous supporters who believe every child deserves the opportunity to participate.
This North Texas Giving Day, we're asking 1,000 people to give $40.
Every round begins with access to the course. Every First Tee - Fort Worth journey does, too.
Join 1,000 neighbors, golfers, parents, alumni, and friends who believe every child deserves the opportunity to grow through golf.
Why $40?
Every participant deserves the chance to discover what they're capable of.
A gift of $40 covers the average golf course cost for one participant during an eight-week First Tee - Fort Worth session, ensuring program fees remain affordable for families.
Your gift does more than provide access to a golf course.
It opens the door to trusted coaches, positive mentors, lasting friendships, and life skills that extend far beyond the fairway.
One participant. Eight weeks. A lifetime of impact.
100% of your gift helps keep First Tee - Fort Worth affordable for local families by covering participant golf course costs.
