Overview

Mission

The general purpose of the corporation is to receive and administer funds and property and conduct activities exclusively for charitable purposes, specifically including encouraging and facilitating golf for young women primarily in finney county and the other 21 counties comprising southwest Kansas.

What it reported doing in 2024

The schools are expected to use the funds as they see fit, for the benefit of the ladies golf team. This could include funding for travel expenses, golf bags, uniforms, or any other items deemed necessary by the team coach. In 2024, payouts were made to a total of 12 southwest Kansas ladies high school golf teams.

  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict
