International Programs As part of Tiger’s aspiration to positively impact youth around the world, the Foundation has expanded globally by investing in Asian communities.
“This is the first stepping stone in achieving my goal of international expansion,” Woods said. “I am delighted to think of all the young people this will help us reach.”
