The Southern California Section of the PGA of America created the Southern California PGA Foundation to develop and administer junior golf programs as well as an increasingly wide array of other community services throughout the Section. The Southern California PGA Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization and operates as a public foundation. With a geographic area that stretches from San Luis Obispo to the Tijuana Border, from the Pacific Ocean to the Nevada and Arizona borders, the Southern California PGA Foundation brings PGA Professionals and programs to the Southern California community in ways previously unrealized.
The Southern California PGA Foundation has assumed administrative oversight and support of:

The Southern California PGA Foundation strives to stimulate youngsters to begin their journey toward athletic as well as personal excellence. Through opportunities for academic, athletic, and personal growth, the Foundation seeks to interest a junior in the game of a lifetime and afford that girl or boy, regardless of race, social or economic standing, religious conviction or skill, the chance to enjoy access to lessons, clubs, and courses on which to practice and play. Through its various programs, the Southern California PGA Foundation’s goal is to make continued self achievement possible for Southern California’s youth and produce a life-long player and lover of the game of golf.
The SCPGA Foundation is involved in and supports the growth of the game of golf through initiatives such as Play Golf America, Neighborhood Golf, California Alliance for Golf and the University of California at Riverside Turfgrass Research Program, to name a few.
