The Amala Foundation inspires the diverse youth of the world to live in unity, serve compassionately and lead peacefully. All of our youth programs are a place for empowerment and healing. Many of the youth we serve, including refugee and immigrant children, have experienced extreme poverty, child labor, gang violence, abuse and neglect; many have witnessed the atrocities of war and have literally run for their lives; many have been uprooted from their native cultures and struggle to integrate into an entirely foreign world. We provide a safe space for these youth to heal, express themselves, share their stories and connect with a loving and supportive community. The Amala Foundation is involved in a number of local, national, and international humanitarian service projects. Camp Indigo was started in 2002 and is now in its 13th year of offering a week-long day camp experience to Austin area children ages 4-12. Camp Mana, now in its eighth year, offers a similar experience over two days in Hawaii. Our One Village Project, including the Global Youth Peace Summit, is in its 7th year and serves more than 150 local, immigrant, international and refugee youth each year. Our Young Artists in Service program provides free art instruction to at-risk children in addition to creating inspiring murals at places like the Austin Children’s Shelter. The Gui Village Living Water Program was a humanitarian service project we successfully completed in 2005, installing two water wells in a Nigerian village, saving 3,500 people (including 2,000 children) from disease. Our partnership with the Bhatti Mines School in Delhi, India helps ensure 200 Indian children a day are receiving an education instead of being forced into child labor.

Members of the 3M Championship (formerly the Burnet Senior Classic), the Minnesota Golf Association and the Minnesota Section of the PGA founded the Fairway Foundation in 1993.

Today, the Fairway Foundation is an innovative community outreach program using the game of golf to make a positive difference in young people?s lives. Golf is the ?hook? to make learning fun. While successfully bringing awareness and education to the inner-city community, the Fairway Foundation?s instructional programs strive to meet the needs of all levels of junior golfers from basic instruction on through to the Careers on Course component. Emphasis is placed on integrity, honesty, respect, self-discipline, accountability, self-esteem, and conflict resolution. Participants learn that the rules of the game and life are built on these principles, such as calling penalties on one?s self. Learned through the game of golf, these values will benefit young people on a daily basis throughout their lives. Our motto is: ?Keep Kids on Course?
