Our Cause

The first time my Dad took me golfing, neither of us had any idea I was stepping onto a path that would lead to a professional career. It was an opportunity that has impacted every aspect of my life and has shaped who I am today.

I’ve had a lot of opportunities in life, and as soon as I earned my PGA Tour card in 2003, I knew I wanted to give back – I knew I wanted to do something for kids, something that would have both an immediate and a long-term benefit.

Brighter Smiles Initiative

The Brighter Smiles Initiative provides a child with life-affirming dental care which impacts how that child views themselves.

THE PROBLEM

Dental issues can be a financial burden for many families, but, left unresolved, these problems can have a huge, life-long negative effect on a child.

IT ALL BEGAN WHEN I WAS 9 YEARS OLD WITH BORROWED CLUBS…

The first time my Dad took my golfing, neither of us had any idea I was stepping onto a path that would lead to a professional career. It was an opportunity Dad gave me that has impacted every aspect of my life and has shaped who I am today.

“The best thing golf has given me is my Foundation – this platform – to raise money, to raise awareness and give back, to give kids the opportunities that I had… and to make kids smile.”
Ryan Palmer

“After being treated for fluorosis (discolored teeth), I learned at an early age how much a healthy smile can affect one’s confidence and outlook on life. I’m privileged to be a part of serving these families and children through the Ryan Palmer Foundation”
Dr Chris Swayden

“We can make a huge impact by coming together – Brighter Smiles Initiative is all about making a difference. We get to affect the future of these children and create an improved trajectory for their lives. Confidence and a good self-image change everything!”
Dr Kyle Sparkman
