I have given enough shirts, caps, sweaters, ball-markers, golf balls and all the rest as Christmas gifts over the years.  This year I have some recommendations to consider that involve giving back to the game of golf.

1.  PARdon Me–my new book that was published in April, 2025, which I believe is my best effort to date.  You can also consider the other titles as well:  Golf Chronicles and Through the Green.  All book proceeds are donated to university golf programs and The First Tee.  Access at:  josephbronson.com
2. USGA National Development Program–contribute to the youth development of the game through USGA programs–contact Kristan Strout at KStrout@usga.org for further information.
3. Subscribe to The Golf Journal–The Golf Journal is the “Harvard Business Review” of golf magazines–published 4 times a year, the magazine brings golf to its finest level with unmatched photography.
4. Contribute to The First Tee of Silicon Valley–significant youth development organization focused on the ideals of The First Tee.  Donation information is easy to find on their website.
5. Forever Young Foundation=Steve Young’s foundation contributes to the development activities for children of all ages throughout the country.  The Foundation is well recognized for its contributions to society and is among the highest ranked charitable organizations that delivers contributions directly to its programs.  For additional information on its programs, go to:  foreveryoung. org.

Hope some of these resonate with you as we seek to improve society through golf and its charitable programs.
