Together, let's make this celebration unforgettable!

Please check back periodically for more information.

Support Fund

The Robert T. Jones, Jr. Program believes no one should miss out on the joy of reconnecting with old friends due to financial constraints. Therefore, we’ve established a Support Fund to help alumni with travel and/or lodging costs to be able to attend the Bobby Jones 50th Anniversary and Program Reunion.  This fund is available for alumni facing financial difficulty who would not be able to otherwise attend without assistance.

Applications will be available starting in October 2026. All requests are confidential and handled with care. The Program will review requests on a rolling basis and respond as quickly as possible.

Do you want to pay it forward?

You can help contribute to the Support Fund and help ensure that all Scholars have the chance to attend the 50th Anniversary.
