Who We Are
We founded the Cobbs Creek Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and attracted an array of public and private funding with one goal in mind: to turn our 350 acres into a campus that belongs to every Philadelphian, every local resident, students, families, and golf lovers everywhere.
The heart of our expanded mission is a self-sustaining model, enabling golf to become a vital conduit for social impact. We will retain our pioneering public links commitment to making golf accessible and will return this course to a championship level benefiting the city and region.
Best of all, the revenue generated from 36 holes for all levels of golfers and a best-in-class driving range complex, complete with a restaurant and our Heritage Center, will support the community-minded Cobbs Creek Campus. Here, a wealth of free programming for students in grades 1–12, as well as events for families, environmental stewards, and more, will thrive and grow.
Together, we are creating a campus of opportunities, all powered by golf.
