Changing the Course of a Lifetime

Many people know someone who couldn't go to college because of the money. And this has inspired thousands of people in the golf community to rally for the cause. With the costs of college continuing to increase, we need your help more than ever. There are a number of ways you can give the gift of an Evans Scholarship. You can make an outright contribution by check or credit card, or make a pledge that can be fulfilled over several years. You can become a Par Club member. You can lend your support to our endowment fund or to a specific capital campaign. You can volunteer or mentor one of our Scholars.

Be a part of golf's #1 charity by making your tax-deductible contribution today! Be a driving force in the lives of deserving caddies. It just might help your golf game along the way.
