Project Golf in the News: How PGA HOPE Helped a Veteran with Addiction Recovery

Since its inception in the Myrtle Beach area in 2020, PGA HOPE (“Helping Our Patriots Everywhere”) has already emerged in a significant way as a life-changing program for veterans in need. This Project Golf initiative has been essential in the addiction recovery of Mark Jacobs, a program participant who is among the latest veterans who’ve benefited, as profiled by WBTW-TV’s Maria DeBone.

PGA HOPE is an extension of Project Golf’s mission to provide greater access to the game, and also use golf as a healing mechanism in people’s lives. WPDE’s Emma Parkhouse provides additional information on how Project Golf and its PGA HOPE program are already working collaboratively with other organizations to work toward their common goal of aiding veterans in need of assistance.
