PGA Players Podcast

The three main ways to give back and the most important things to consider

Show Notes

As a professional golfer you have been given an opportunity to lead by example. Many athletes use their platform to lead in different ways. Giving back to charities and foundations can be a big part of leading your community. I highly encourage you to get involved, whether financially, with your time, or both.

When making donations, raising funds, or starting a foundation make sure that you know the keys to success and how to maximize your impact. Being strategic with how you donate and are financially involved can have a bigger benefit for the places you support and create more savings on your taxes. Be the best in every element of your world!
