“The first tee of greater seattle teaches life skills, healthy habits, and the first tee's nine core values of honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, respect, responsibility, judgement, perseverance, courtesy, and confidence to youth from all backgrounds, ages 5-18 years old. We taught the first tee's life skills curriculum to 2,500 young people at 11 municipal golf facilities in king county and partnered with 15 local social service agencies to reach youth who could benefit the most from our program. Additionally, we trained p.e. Teachers by partnering with 188 elementary schools and 29 middle schools to reach close to 175,000 students. These contractual relationship are with the following 13 school districts in washington: auburn, enumclaw, federal way, highline, issaquah, kent, renton, riverview,seattle, shoreline, snohomish, tahoma, tukwila, as well as 13 independent schools. We received support from 545 volunteers and adult mentors to provide a 1 to 4 adult to child ratio to empower youth in youth-centered and master-driven weekly classes every season of the year. The first tee of greater seattle is in the top 5% of all first tee chapters nation-wide. Our program is offered on a sliding scale of 199-99 per season based on ability to pay with 40% of the youth we serve on full scholarships. We strive to serve young people who would not otherwise have the opportunity to participate in golf and 43% of the youth we serve were girls and 60% were children of color. The year 2019 experienced broad support from donors in our community with over 1,600 individuals giving financial gifts to our organization.”
