Partnering With Pinellas County Schools

We act in partnership with Pinellas County Schools to offer the unique, public-private Chi Chi Rodriguez Academy that serves grades 5 through 8. The public school system identifies children in need of our special surroundings. Pinellas County Schools also provides our teachers and principal, while the Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation provides the facilities and classroom enrichment materials.

Investing In Our Community  

Chi Chi Rodriguez is proud to partner with First Tee to spread our impact in the community. At First Tee, youth learn to play golf along with life lessons and leadership skills. And it’s making a difference. The program has a positive impact on participants, their families, and their communities. 

Join The Impact

We rely on individual partnerships with people who share our heart to make a positive impact by preparing the next generation for future success. Your partnership with the Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation makes it possible for us to:

  • Maintain our unique, living classroom environment our students need to succeed. 

  • Increase graduation rates and enrich the future of our community and economy.

  • Instill personal discipline, concentration, honesty, and tenacity into future generations. 

The Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c) 3 organization that helps at-risk youth achieve academic, social, and economic success by keeping them engaged in their education and acquiring practical skills necessary to succeed at life. 

Our foundation operates the Chi Chi Rodriguez Golf Club and Driving Range businesses as well as the Chi Chi Academy and First Tee - Clearwater educational programs, located on the Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation campus in Clearwater, Florida. All proceeds from golfing supports the educational programs. Play with Purpose.
