about PGA hope
PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) is the flagship military program of the NJGF, designed to introduce golf at No Cost to Veterans, in order to enhance their physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being.
Led by PGA Professionals, PGA HOPE helps Veterans assimilate back into their communities through the social interaction the game of golf provides. We offer PGA HOPE Programs in all 15 Counties in our Section (Northern and Central NJ).
