The Ryde Parramatta Golf Club Foundation has been established to financially assist the Club with some of our longer-term objectives and developments. Members are invited to help the Foundation play a significant role in our Club for the benefit of current and future members.

The Foundation sits separate from the Club operations and will be independently governed and will have a small membership of senior Club members to maintain accountability and performance. Importantly all funds raised by the Foundation can only be used to improve the Club with the approval of the Foundation Board and are not available to supplement the Club's normal operating requirements.

The Foundation will primarily raise funds through donations, gifts, bequests and other contributions or fundraising activities. These funds are then to be used to provide financial support to the Club to:

i. enable its growth and development of golf at the Club

ii. improve facilities or undertake maintenance and repairs of the facilities of the Club for the enjoyment of members of the Club

iii. construct, alter, establish, provide and maintain facilities, furnishings, buildings, infrastructure or to otherwise undertake works at the Club

Funds raised by the Foundation will be applied to specific projects or to other significant improvements that fall beyond the capacity of the Club's annual budget. The Foundation will consult with the Club Board to identify the specific targets for fundraising initiatives that best serve current and future members. While projects will be identified and funded, it is also intended to build reserves so the Foundation can secure our desire to remain as being a premier golf club of choice in Sydney.
