Anthony's Ladies Apparel, a fourth-generation family-owned retailer, has partnered with the Women's Golf Association at PGA National Resort in Jupiter, Florida to raise scholarship funds for aspiring women golfers. The two-day fundraising event featured golf clinics, a fashion show, and a silent auction, with all proceeds going towards the newly established scholarship program.

Why it matters

Women's participation in golf has steadily increased in recent years, but the sport still faces challenges in providing equal opportunities and resources for female players. This scholarship program aims to break down barriers and invest in the next generation of women golfers, helping to grow the sport and create more diverse representation at the highest levels.

The details

The fundraising event included golf clinics led by PGA National's top teaching professionals, a fashion show highlighting Anthony's latest women's golf apparel collection, and a silent auction with donated items from local businesses. All proceeds from ticket sales, sponsorships, and auction bids will go towards establishing a new scholarship fund to support aspiring women golfers attending the PGA National Golf Academy.

  • The two-day fundraising event took place on April 6-7, 2026.
