What We Support
NWAGA is dedicated to programs that promote golf and support the women who play the game. Below are two of NWAGA's key programs. This support is made possible through our annual fundraising event, Fund Day. Donations and contributions to NWAGA, a non-profit, are also gratefully accepted. Contact NWAGA at nwaga@nebgolf.org to see how you can contribute.
Girls' Four-State Team
NWAGA sponsors the Nebraska Girls' Four-State Team and provides travel expenses, uniforms, golf bags, and chaperones for the competitors. NWAGA takes a great deal of responsibility for insuring that the best junior programs have the funding and support that they need to flourish and meet the needs of our junior girls, who are the future of the game for women. Our NWAGA Junior Golf Committee is comprised of a group of dedicated women who volunteer to provide the organization and promotional skills necessary to conduct fundraisers, organize volunteer efforts, inspire local champions of the cause, and to step forward to do the ongoing work of running these programs.
NWAGA Founders' Scholarship
Each year, NWAGA awards scholarships to female Nebraska High School Seniors who played high school golf and plan to further their education at a 2-year, 4-year, or a technical school in Nebraska. A scholarship is awarded to applicants in each NWAGA region (Eastern Nebraska, Central Nebraska and Western Nebraska) with the remaining scholarships awarded, regardless of region.
T.E.E. Grant Program
NWAGA's T.E.E. (Tournament Expenses Eased) Grant initiative provides financial support to female junior golfers with golf-related expenses. After completing the T.E.E. Grant application, junior girls from Nebraska can apply for advanced support of Nebraska Junior Golf membership ($125 value) or submit a request for reimbursement involving golf-related expenses. The maximum support an individual may receive is $500. A junior golfer is defined as an amateur golfer who has not yet reached the September 1 following graduation from high school.
