Charity Auction to support Appalachian Literacy
« on: March 15, 2025, 08:58:04 PM »
Seven years ago, my wife co-founded a 501c3 named Appalachian Literacy Initiative. ALI seeks to improve reading proficiency among low income students in the Appalachian region by giving them books. Studies indicate that ACCESS to books is a major problem for low income kids (60% have zero age appropriate books in their homes). 


Those of us who enjoy golf course architecture can appreciate just how important access can be 😉.  Please consider patronizing this auction as you can find some excellent golf experiences up for bid.  Any support will be greatly appreciated.

If any of you wish to donate some golf, that would be amazing. 


Best to all,


Bart

Great auction, and for a cause near and dear to my heart.  Thank you for posting this!

Thanks AG.  I am very proud of the work we are doing.  We all need some kindness and good news. 


The auction heads to its final week.  Some good bargains available and some very special experiences.  I look forward to hosting the Grandfather winner myself. 


Best to all,
