Featured Partner

TruGreen has been a dedicated partner and First Tee Trustee since 2021, donating more than $1 million. Through this partnership, TruGreen supports First Tee’s College Scholarship Program, which is designed to empower exceptional alumni with financial assistance, professional development and mentorship throughout their college journey. TruGreen’s commitment to the College Scholarship Program extends beyond financial support with TruGreen also providing leaders from across the company as mentors to First Tee Scholars.  

This summer, TruGreen announced the TruGreen Happy Drive Challenge, a social media charity initiative supporting First Tee. Amateurs, pros and non-golfers are invited to record and post their own “Happy swing” using #TruGreenHappyDrive on social media. Along with taking a swing, participants are encouraged to donate directly to their local First Tee Chapter at FirstTee.org/HappyDrive. TruGreen has donated $250,000 to First Tee and every swing posted will unlock an additional $1 donation to First Tee up to $50,000. 

Trustees

Since our inception, Trustees have provided resources that allow First Tee to successfully advance our mission. Trustees make a significant impact on our ability to provide strategic direction to our growing network of 150 chapters, as well as curriculum enhancements, technology innovations, ongoing research, continuing adult education for coaches and chapter leaders, expanding diversity and inclusion initiatives, and college scholarships. First Tee Trustees are made up of individuals, corporations and foundations that pledge $1 million or more to our mission. Trustees can direct a portion of their gift to a local chapter(s) of their choice.
