“The Bridge Golf Foundation(BGF) is an intensive, year-round, multi-year program for Eagle Academy Students that is meant not only to improve college readiness but also to follow and help our young men across the finish line of college and career. Golf is the sports cornerstone of what is a rigorous academic, character education and development, and college readiness program. During the school year, students from 8th through 12th attend daily weekday 2-3-hour sessions at our facility which contains both state-of-the-art indoor golf instruction facilities and classroom and one-on-one tutoring spaces. In addition to a dedicated academic tutoring and character education staff which assists in small groups and one-on-one as necessary, BGF provides standardized test prep using recognized outside entities with proven improvements in results. Supplementing Eagle's college counseling function, BGF will advise the student and his family on and assist in college and post-secondary selection, help with the application process, and assist in preparing the complex financial component of the college application, as well as the college essay for the common app. The scope of our assistance includes taking the young men on college visits, obtaining summer internships for them in and outside of the golf industry, and otherwise helping to build a strong identity for the application process. Each young man is also assigned a mentor with whom he meets regularly outside the program, and who complements the work of the tutors and golf instructors. After they enter college, we continue to mentor and support them. We believe that getting a young man through college -- not simply to -- college is our mission. We are making a long-term deep dive into the lives of 28 young men, with the intention of increasing the size of our group to 50, after we move into larger premises in the spring of 2019. BGF started and operates the Percy Sutton High School Golf Team, Harlem's only such mens' team, and takes the young men regularly to area golf courses in season. BGF's affiliation with The Bridge, a private golf club in Long Island, affords significant golf and work training (on the grounds crew, in the pro shop, in the restaurant facility) in summer. Under the tutelage of our PGA-accredited golf staff, our young men are given the opportunity to become skilled golfers by the time they are college ready. Golf is the platform on which we build readiness for college, the workplace, and life.”
