Endowed Scholarships
The GSGA Foundation offers the opportunity to permanently endow a Yates or Moncrief Scholarship at a minimum contribution of $50,000. A donor(s) may elect to make a donation at one time or spread the donation over a period of two to five years, if preferred.
GSGA Foundation Endowments
An endowed scholarship provides a grant to be awarded to a deserving scholar annually, resulting in the continuous recognition of the honoree. A unique characteristic of the Endowed Scholarship Program is that it permanently links the honoree with golf, youth and education.
The donation(s) to fund a scholarship and any additional contributions to it are tax deductible. All scholarships are announced to the media, GSGA Member Clubs and at the GSGA Foundation Scholars Luncheon each year.
Please contact Drew Braswell for additional information at 678-324-5962 or dbraswell@gsga.org.
