The Fairway Foundation was founded in 1993 by members of the 3M Championship (formerly the Burnet Senior Classic), the Minnesota Golf Association and the Minnesota Section of the PGA.
 
It was recognized that bringing golf to urban youth was a way to develop positive life skills and values. In 2005, Saint Paul based Personal Enrichment Programs for African Americans (PEPAA) whose golf & scholarship program "Sponsor a Future Tiger" had a parallel mission and goals, joined forces to better serve those that would not otherwise be exposed to the great game of golf.

Together we are well positioned to continue our service to the Twin Cities under represented populations.
