In order to fulfill its mission and purpose, the Society has created several worthy golf-related projects and initiatives, as well as providing various events and activities to encourage transformative process among our members.

• In 1995, the Society established a Scholarship Fund to support youth golf, provide summer golf camp experiences for disadvantaged youth and to enable those in need of financial assistance to participate in Society programs and other worthwhile golfing activities. Since the inception of this fund, the Society has spent more than $136,000 to send disadvantaged boys and girls to summer golf camps.
  
  
• The Society sponsors a number of events designed to further its mission such as the symposium, "New Dimensions in Learning Through Golf," held at Stanford University, which brought together many leading thinkers in sports, learning, and spirituality to examine the qualatative factors of transformative education.
  
  
• Future symposia are being planned to explore varied topics such as the role of women and the untold story of their contributions to the history and teaching of the game; and the relationship between golf (and sport in general) and various forms of transformative and spiritual practice.
  
  
• The Society sponsors extraordinary golfing outings, which always include educational activities as well as links to the historical roots of the game. "The Shivas Irons Games of the Links" was held at Pebble Beach for two years, and has recently continued at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort in Bandon, Oregon where it has started to establish an enduring tradition. A number of other nationally sponsored events occur at different locations throughout the country. Notable past programs include "Golf and Meditation" led by Michael Murphy, and "Golf is a Journey of the Mind," with PGA Tour Professionals Kirk Tripplett and Scott McCarron and led by renowned sports psychologist, Glen Albaugh.
  
  
• In addition to these major national events, since 1998, volunteer member coordinators have established local and regional events to expand accessibility and outreach on the grass-roots level. This program has grown from our first event in 1998 to more than 100 since. All of these events are designed to be educational as well as enjoyable, and can provide an opportunity to benefit local community programs.
  
  
• In 2004 the Society began publication of The Journal of the Shivas Irons Society, an art and literary journal with a mission to contribute to the enrichment and improvement of the culture of golf and to make manifest the virtues for which the Society stands. The Journal has its own section of the website which is readily available from a link on the header of this page.
