Overview

Mission

We are addressing youth mental wellness through a curriculum and live experience platform that we have developed. We partner with golf organizations like First Tee PGA Reach and golf clubs around the country to operate 1 and 2 day clinics. We work with adolescent and young adults ages 12-22 years old. In addition to our live experience we developed an online platform where participants can work through modules and gain further knowledge and guidance to proper mental fitness that translates to their day to day life.

What it reported doing in 2025

Change Your Course: Our program is getting adolescent and young adults to being understanding the importance of intentional thought resilience development coping with success and failure all through the game of golf but intended to be translatable to their life situations. We reached 75 kids through live experience with our 5 events. We surveyed and received unanimous positive rated feedback to the programs ability to connect these golf lessons to life. We added 1 additional sport psychologist. We are now communicating with First Tee HQ about a larger scale expansion with our work with them. Our 3 largest program services would be live experiences clinics a fully built curriculum accessible online and partnerships with junior golf programs.

Operating model

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
