Two Michigan companies have great gift ideas for dad that will also provide donations to organizations helping others in need.
North Coast Golf, a start–up company in Port Huron that makes high-end soft leather golfing gloves, has been supporting food banks in Michigan and regionally this spring, such as: Forgotten Harvest (Oak Park), Gleaners (Detroit), Food Bank for New York City, and the Greater Lansing Food Bank.
North Coast Golf is the dream of friends who grew up playing Michigan’s outstanding Up North coastal courses. The group was frequently disappointed that golf gloves had no real fashion style, didn’t fit well, didn’t look good, didn’t feel good and were not durable. Setting out to change that was the core mission, founded by Matt Fernandez. More info: www.northcoastgolfco.com. 
Sideways 9 is a casual golf apparel company taking a fun approach to the game. Created by PGA Professional Chad Maveus, the line is derived from a true player’s perspective, with a bit of sarcasm and wit sprinkled in.
Sideways 9 will donate 10 percent of all online sales during June to the Folds of Honor Foundation. Visit: www.sideways9.com
