USGA Champions for Charity

Champions for Charity

Overview
The USGA believes in the power of community. As a dedicated 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to champion and advance the game of golf, the USGA applauds fellow nonprofit organizations in our championship host communities who selflessly help to improve the lives of others within their neighborhoods.

To recognize the workers, volunteers, and people supported by these organizations and expand opportunities for those who could not otherwise attend the 2025 U.S. Open, the USGA Champions for Charities program is offering limited free admission Gallery tickets (Monday-Wednesday practice rounds only) to select nonprofit organizations based in Western Pennsylvania.

The USGA will prioritize organizations who align with the USGA’s mission and vision within the following pillars: those with a connection to recreational or competitive golf or sports, accessibility and affordability of sports, youth services, education/STEM, character development, health and wellness, supporting those in the adaptive or disabled community, or public safety. Please note your connection to these pillars, along with your story of why you should be selected, in the box below.
