The Gazmine Mason Foundation (GMF) was created to help others achieve their dreams because we know no one can do it alone. GMF is a nonprofit that fosters education, health, and nutrition for under-resourced youth and individuals through the sport of bowling. We were founded in 2020 by 12X Olympic Medalist and Professional Bowler, Gazmine 'GG' Mason and her parents, George and Danielle Mason. GG started bowling at ten years old and, throughout her years, has seen the differences in resources available for bowling athletes worldwide. This led her and her parents to create opportunities, especially for inner-city kids, to help them progress in their bowling careers.
GMF has programs that provide athletes with opportunities to receive equipment, training, educational and health resources, apparel & uniforms, and attend exclusive experiences that they previously didn't experience before the GMF. Our programs are created with these things in mind: providing access, building self-esteem, building an inclusive community, dismantling mental limitations, and building camaraderie. We currently offer programs within the US and are looking to expand globally.
