In this episode of Restoring Dignity Live with C2C, Firestarter & CEO MarieYolaine Toms sits down with Kelley Pierre, CEO and founder of All Access Golf, to explore how golf can be a bridge for access, equity, and community impact. A proud son of Haitian heritage with Brooklyn roots and an MBA in Finance, Kelley is dedicated to making the game more visible and accessible for underrepresented communities while partnering with C2C to advance Development with Dignity in Haïti.

Kelley shares how he first connected with C2C, the origin story of All Access Golf, and the history many don’t know about Black contributions to the sport—from Dr. George Grant’s invention of the modern golf tee to John Shippen, the first American golf professional. He breaks down what newcomers can expect at a golf clinic (putting, chipping, camaraderie, and a lot of fun) and why networking on the course often leads to real-world opportunities.

This conversation also highlights how the Gérard & Giselene Eusebe Golf Classic supports tangible impact—like C2C’s canal initiative for clean water and the forthcoming Health & Wellness Center that will expand access to maternal care, elder care, vaccinations, and mental health services while doubling as a small business development hub.

In this episode, Kelley talks about:

1. How he connected with C2C and why the mission resonates

2. The vision behind All Access Golf and expanding representation in the sport

3. Little-known Black history in golf and its ongoing relevance today

4. Why golf clinics create confidence, community, and opportunity

5. How the Golf Classic fuels clean water access and community health in Haïti

Join us to see how sport, culture, and community come together to restore dignity and create lasting change.
