Who Are We Benefitting?

Launched in January 2022, First Tee – Atlantic has been working to activate programming in all four Atlantic provinces. In partnership with Golf New Brunswick, Nova Scotia Golf Association, Prince Edward Island Golf Association and Golf Newfoundland Labrador, First Tee was able to onboard 15 school programs, two community programs and two golf course programs in year one, providing quality programming to nearly 4,000 children and counting.

Notable partnerships for 2022 include a Chapterled initiative with the Halifax Regional Centre for Education EXCEL Program. This after-school program will see the First Tee program delivered to over 4,000 students at 69 sites through the school district’s boundaries. Funding for this initiative was secured through a grant from HRCE EXCEL which allowed First Tee – Atlantic to hire two part-time coaches to deliver the sessions.

Other notable partnerships include a collaborative effort with the Confederacy of Mainland Mi’kmaq Nova Scotia, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Halifax, and recreation service providers  in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
