George S. Wemyss Scholarship Fund Holiday Appeal

With the holiday season approaching, the NEPGA George S. Wemyss Scholarship Fund Committee is holding its annual Holiday Appeal asking for your help and support. Since 1985, children and grandchildren of New England PGA members have been awarded college scholarships through this Fund. Click here to learn more about George's legacy.

During this holiday season, we ask that each New England PGA member make a tax deductible donation to the fund, preferably by December 31, 2013. Any amount you can contribute will be most welcomed and appreciated. You will receive a personal letter acknowledging your contribution for income tax purposes.
