Deere & Co. announced it has extended its financial commitment to The First Tee, a nonprofit youth development organization that uses golf to teach life and leadership skills to young people. Deere’s support from 2017 through 2021 will focus on community service and volunteerism, leadership skills for girls, and program support of First Tee activities in select Deere communities. First Tee participants, ages 14 to 18, will be invited to submit a written essay for the opportunity to win a $5,000 college scholarship. The John Deere Foundation also will fund more First Tee chapters in select John Deere home communities, including Des Moines.
