Scholarships

We are proud to announce that we have $135,000 in scholarship money available for eligible high school seniors. This makes it the largest amount available in LPGA Foundation history, thanks to amazing partners like the Chevron Corporation.

The LPGA Foundation administers several scholarship programs for young women who enjoy the game of golf and plan to attend college in the fall. Qualifications for all scholarships include strong academic programs, community service, and recommendations.

The LPGA Foundation's structure also allows for the establishment of endowed scholarships in honor or in memory of individuals who made a significant difference in the world of golf.

The Chevron Changing the Face of Golf Scholarship will be awarded through the LPGA Foundation as part of Chevron’s commitment through the LPGA Foundation Giving Circle. Established in 2022, Chevron will offer this scholarship opportunity for female high school seniors of minority background pursuing a full-time, STEM-focused course of study at an accredited college or university in the United States. Through this effort, the LPGA Foundation will further its commitment to Change the Face of Golf and increase opportunities for young women to obtain a college education. For this particular Scholarship process, Five (5) $2,500 scholarships will be awarded in the Spring of 2024 and will be available for renewal for four years of undergraduate studies ($10,000 total). This amounts to seven total scholarships presented by Chevron including the two Dinah Shore Chevron Scholarships. The application process will open in the Fall of 2023. 

The Why

The goal of this initiative is two-fold: 

  • To increase representation of communities who have been traditionally underrepresented in golf and STEM.
  • To preserve the legacy of Dinah Shore, an advocate for women’s golf and honorary member of the LPGA Tour Hall of Fame.

The How

The LPGA Foundation and Chevron are offering this Scholarship Program where five young women will be awarded $2,500 in the Spring of 2023 which will be available for renewal for four years of studies, totaling $10,000 in Scholarship funds per recipient. Qualifications to apply for the scholarship include being a high school senior at the time of application, strong academics, community service and letters of recommendations.
