Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

American Golf Foundation is dedicated to the enhancement and enrichment of communities by promoting the enjoyment of the game of golf and its ideals through charity, education and community service.

  • The Foundation works with municipal, resort and daily fee golf courses across the country to actively support a wide spectrum of worthy local and national non-profit organizations that make a difference in local communities. The Foundation mobilized a dedicated team of volunteer Ambassadors at host golf courses. Ambassadors donate their time, energy, skills and knowledge to conduct fundraising activities, participate in community outreach programs, educate guests on proper golf course etiquette, rules and safety, and help make the game of golf accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds.The Foundation's flagship Adopt-A-Charity program is a grass roots vehicle for local fundraising in which each participating golf course establishes a partnership with a local non-profit organization and organizes a charity golf tournament or other fundraising event for its benefit. In addition to Adopt-A-Charity partnerships, the American Golf Foundation aligns itself with and actively supports a variety of charitable efforts both nationally and in local communities.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
