Building on a history of social and environmental value at the roots of the game, golf is poised to emerge as a leader in sustainable sport and business. In many ways, from ecosystem services and conservation of wildlife, to health and well-being for all ages, to jobs and economic value through local supply chains, golf is good for nature and communities. Following years of research and professional expertise, the industry is in a new phase of activity working to collectively and credibly represent its contribution while also pledging to do more and more. This effort is delivered in partnership with GEO Foundation, the international non-profit dedicated entirely to providing a credible and practical sustainability system for golf.

A grassroots, local nonprofit organization run by a small team of dedicated staff and supported by passionate volunteers, just like you! We inspire local communities to care for their coastlines through fun, hands- on beach cleanups.
