Why $500,000?

We need to raise $500,000 for our outstanding educational initiatives during this unprecedented time. The needs of our students and our community are stronger than ever, and we are unable to perform our typical fundraising approach.

Here’s How You Can Help

When students with enormous potential fail, their temptation to drop out of school increases, which negatively impacts our community’s economic, social, and civic health. 

Your support for The Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation allows Pinellas County youth to achieve academic success, build character, and attain critical life skills through: 

• The Chi Chi Rodriguez Academy

• First Tee - Clearwater

There are a few upcoming ways you can give youth the education and character they need to become great shot makers and even bigger world changers.
