With Larry Berger's inspirational guidance the Society is establishing a new charitable initiative to provide a meaningful golf experience to a golfer, or member of a golfer’s family, in a time of urgent medical, financial, or psychological need, in which the Society’s belief in the transformational power of the great gemme of golf can be lived out by a golfer in need or bestowed upon a member of his/her family in a time of urgent need.

Thank you for your generous support in helping Larry fulfill a dream.
