Making Golf and Tennis Accessible for Kids | Chip In Foundation

Our Story

Chip In Foundation is a nonprofit founded by Kevin Bien after he began playing golf post–high school and noticed how inaccessible the sport can be. He realized that many kids never get exposed to golf or tennis simply because they don’t have the proper equipment. Chip In Foundation collects used golf clubs and tennis rackets from people who no longer use them and redistributes them to kids who want to start playing, helping make these sports more inclusive and accessible from the ground up.
