Signarama Partners with First Tee to Provide $75,000 in Signage Grants for Youth Development

Signarama, the world's leading sign and graphics franchise, has announced its support of First Tee, a nonprofit youth development organization that empowers children and teenagers through golf while helping them build character and life skills. The company is becoming a National Impact Partner, which includes providing a grant program available to more than 100 First Tee Chapters across the United States.

This partnership represents a significant commitment to youth development through practical business support. First Tee began in 1997 as a partnership among leading golf organizations to make the sport affordable and accessible for all children. The organization introduced both the game of golf and a life skills curriculum that supports the development of young people's self-confidence, resiliency skills, and inner strength. For more than two decades, First Tee has been committed to helping kids build character and important life skills by providing fun and safe personal growth opportunities at golf courses, schools, and community centers throughout the U.S.

"Signarama is proud to support First Tee," said A.J. Titus, President of Signarama. "This partnership reflects our commitment to supporting national programs that make a positive impact in local communities while inspiring the next generation of leaders." The collaboration demonstrates how corporate partnerships can directly support youth development initiatives that extend beyond traditional educational settings.

Starting October 1st and running through October 31st, First Tee chapters can apply for identification signage, facility signage, or vehicle graphics. Signarama will provide up to $75,000 in grants for signage at First Tee Chapters, with grantees being notified by December 2025. The grants through this partnership can be used for various signage needs that may include event signage to generate more attention at events with products like banners and feather flags, branding signage to showcase First Tee's mission and values with facility signage like wall murals and donor recognition plaques, and vehicle graphics that can advertise the mission through vehicle lettering, removable magnets, and partial and full wraps on all types of vehicles including trailers and golf carts.

"These grants from Signarama will help bring visibility to the important work our Chapters are doing in communities across the country," said Jennifer Weiler, First Tee's senior vice president of network relations. "We are grateful for Signarama's commitment to our mission of empowering kids through golf." The partnership highlights how strategic corporate support can enhance nonprofit visibility and operational capacity. For more information about First Tee, visit https://firsttee.org.
