Mentoring Matters: Unique Program Uses Golf To Empower Vulnerable Youth

Fore Life, Inc. knows first hand that there are many life coping, decision making and character building skills missing in today’s youth. Some simply have rejected them, while others may have not been taught in a manner in which they can relate. All children deserve as many opportunities as possible to instill core values. Locking them away is not always the answer. The answer is diverting them to an atmosphere where they can:

Feel a sense of worth while learning a game which they otherwise would not be exposed or interested.
Achieve a reliable basis for making informed, deliberate decisions.
Learn respect for democratic values and understand responsible citizenship.
Find ways of being useful to others beyond self.
Learn four (4) values that will lead to personal and social development.

Judgment = Foresight to make better decisions

Accountability = Ownership of one’s actions

Respect = Respect for yourself and others

Hope = Excellence.

Pursuit of excellence breeds hope and fosters success

Commitment to excellence is the core of hope and achievement.

“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.”

“My family and I are extremely grateful to be members of the Fore Life, Inc. program. Fore Life has enriched our lives tremendously. Fore Life offers us the opportunity to not only pursue our interest in golf but it also serves as a personal enrichment and life skills program for my children. I am happy that they have the opportunity to not only learn the game of golf but also learn valuable life lessons.” Fore Life, Inc. Parent
