WHERE...

· WHO IS THE NMGF?

THE NMGF IS A NON-PROFIT ENTITY ORGANIZED TO PROMOTE OPPORTUNITIES FOR MINORITIES IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE CAME AND BUSINESS OF GOLF.

· WHAT MAKES THE NMGF NECESSARY?

NOT WITHSTANDING THE CONSPICUOUS SUCCESS OF TIGER WOODS, MINORITIES CONSTITUTE A MINIMAL PRESENCE IN GOLF. THE CHRONIC UNDERREPRESENTATION OF MINORITIES IS EVIDENT NOT ONLY AMONG COMPETITIVE AND RECREATIONAL GOLFERS, BUT ALSO AMONG GOLF INDUSTRY EMPLOYEES.

WHY IS THE NMGF STILL NECESSARY GIVEN THE OTHER MINORITY ORIENTED INITIATIVES 1N GOLF?

ALTHOUGH THERE ARE WELCOMED GOLF INDUSTRY INITIATIVES AIMED, IN PART,AT EXPANDING THE INVOLVEMENT OF MINORITY YOUTH IN GOLF, THE NMGF FILLS A VOID IN THE GOLF WORLD. IT IS THE ONLY ENTITY WITH A FULL-TIME PROFESSIONAL STAFF DEDICATED EXCLUSIVELY TO ADDRESSING THE CHRONIC UNDERREPRESENTATION OF MINORITIES THROUGHOUT GOLF.

· WHERE WILL THE NMGF CONCENTRATE ITS EFFORTS

AS A NATIONAL MINORITY GOLF ADVOCACY/RESOURCE CENTER, THE NMGF DEVELOPS DATABASES TO IDENTIFY PROMISING MINORITY JUNIOR GOLFERS AND EMPLOYMENT CANDIDATES, AS WELL AS GOLF-RELATED SCHOLARSHIP, INTERNSHIP,EMPLOYMENT AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES. IT WORKS WITH OTHER MINORITY GOLF ORGANIZATIONS TO ENHANCE THEIR PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES AND TO ESTABLISH A NATIONAL MINORITY GOLF CONSTITUENCY COMPRISED OF A NETWORK OF REGIONAL AND LOCAL MINORITY GOLF ORGANIZATIONS AND ASSOCIATIONS.

FINALLY, THE NMGF SERVES AS AN ADVOCATE FOR MINORITY GOLF INTERESTS IN GENERAL AND BY WORKING AS A STRATEGIC PARTNER WITH GOLF'S GOVERNING BODIES AND SUPPORTING GOLF INDUSTRY INITIATIVES TO EXPAND MINORITY INVOLVEMENT IN GOLF.
