Ways to Give

Together with the Houston Golf Association, The First Tee-Greater Houston seeks to build character, teach life skills and wellness through the fun and engaging platform of golf. Your financial assistance and equipment donations ensure bright futures for Houston’s area youth.

We could not reach hundreds of thousands of young people and families each year without the 3,885 volunteer hours in 2019 by amazing mentor coaches like Dr. Swafford. Please take a few minutes to hear Dr. Swafford’s testimonial.

F.M. Law Park Capital Campaign

F.M. Law Park spans 2,473 yards of natural turf at Houston’s only nine-hole municipal golf club for kids of all skill levels. The park is in an underserved part of the community and positively impacts thousands of youth annually through First Tee – Greater Houston – a program that builds character, instills life-enhancing values and promotes healthy choices through the game of golf.
