Antigua to Offer Merchandise that Benefits PGA HOPE Military Veteran Programs

Antigua Sportswear has announced an agreement with PGA REACH, the charitable foundation of the PGA of America, to benefit our nation's Veterans through sales of PGA HOPE apparel at green-grass facilities. 

 

The PGA HOPE-logoed apparel on Antigua-branded caps and shirts will be sold by PGA Professionals in green-grass locations.  And a portion of all sales will support PGA HOPE. 

PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) introduces golf to Veterans with disabilities, to enhance their physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being.  The six-to-eight week curriculum is taught by PGA Professionals trained in adaptive golf and military culture.  All programming is funded by PGA REACH and supplemented by PGA Section Foundations, and free to all Veterans. 

 

PGA REACH Senior Director Ryan Cannon said, 

"We are proud that Antigua has teamed up with PGA REACH to support our efforts to enhance the lives of our military heroes through PGA HOPE.  PGA Professionals have the ability to sell PGA HOPE merchandise that is visually appealing for a tremendous cause." 

PGA HOPE also works with the Department of Veteran's Affairs (VA), which enables Recreational Therapists to refer Veterans to the program as a form of therapy.  PGA HOPE aspires to create a physically and emotionally healthier Veteran community, by shaping, changing and possibly saving lives through the game of golf. 

 

Antigua President and CEO Ron McPherson said, 

"Antigua is proud to launch a very special program that benefits our nation’s Veterans through PGA HOPE.  As we support those who have given so much to our country through programs such as PGA HOPE, we're delighted to work with PGA Professionals and the game of golf to make a positive impact."
