GOLFTEC embarks on its annual charity campaign in support of PGA HOPE

By Sabrina Naccarato

GOLFTEC is partnering with PGA HOPE to help our Veterans through the great game of golf. A lot of us use golf as a way to relax and unwind and that’s no different for the heros of our country.

PGA HopePGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) introduces disabled military Veterans to golf to enhance their physical, mental, social and emotional well-being.

The program is a branch of PGA REACH, the charitable foundation of the PGA of America, which consists of a 6-8 week curriculum, taught by PGA Professionals trained in adaptive golf and military cultural competency.

Military and Veteran Liason for the PGA of America, Chris Nowak, stopped by GOLFTEC Headquarters to explain to us just how important this program is to him and Veterans alike. He describes giving back ‘one moment in time.’ That moment in time is focused on hitting the golf ball and not the trauma they’ve experienced.

All programs are funded by PGA REACH and if you want to help a Veteran one moment at a time, right now is a perfect time. From now until November 11, 2019, GOLFTEC is offering a FREE lesson or club fitting after you donate $50 or more to PGA HOPE.

  2. As a disabled war veteran who has been through a project Hope,I can and do tell everyone just how much this program has done for me. I carried a weight of what the years of 65 and 66 did to me,the Hope project help me unload some of that weight just by swinging a golf club in a more gentle way. Until this time I was taking anger out at the golf ball,and hating every moment of time I had that club in my hands. Now at the age of 73,I’m playing. You have no idea how nice that is for me.
    If anyone has an itch about supporting any project to truly help someone out, you couldn’t find a better way to do it. And for those that do help,as a vet I send you my thanks.
