The Minnesota PGA is the proud home of 10 PGA HOPE Chapters. A large geographical region, including the entire states of Minnesota and North Dakota; South Dakota (fewer areas surrounding cities of Rapid City, Vermillion, and Yankton); and a portion of Western Wisconsin that includes St. Croix County and Superior, Wisconsin. We are proud to work with our Local PGA Professionals to provide programming FREE of charge to all active duty Military and our nation's Veterans. We have helped hundreds of local Veterans find their passion in golf and we hope to continue creating lifelong golfers through this fundraising effort.
"I got involved with PGA HOPE through my local VA and Recreational Therapy program. I graduated through the PGA HOPE Minnetonka program and something clicked with me that golf just helped. I decided to get a course membership and get out and play and now I am in my second year of 100+ rounds of golf each year. It's helped me socialize, it's gotten me out of the house, it's helped me with focus, it's helped me with balance, all sorts of things I never knew this sport could bring." - Jared Fears, U.S. Marine Corp. Veteran and PGA HOPE Ambassador for the Minnesota Section
