The First Tee is a World Golf Foundation initiative dedicated to providing affordable golf access for everyone, especially young people, who otherwise might not have an opportunity to play. As sole founding partner of World Golf Village, Inc., Shell Oil Company provides financial support to the World Golf Foundation and supports its charitable initiatives aimed at introducing golf to young people, thereby promoting scholastic achievement, community service and those values intrinsic to the game of golf. YMCAs are at the heart of community life, serving 17.5 million people, including 9 million children each year, through a broad range of programs including mentoring, youth leadership and volunteerism. Collectively, YMCAs are also the nation's largest providers of child care. YMCAs are for people of all faiths, races, ages and incomes.
Financial assistance is available for YMCA programs and membership.
