The bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code by adding a new section, 811kk, which mandates the Secretary of State to develop and issue a fund-raising license plate aimed at supporting charitable golf initiatives. These initiatives are intended to benefit youth, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and families facing financial barriers. The design of the plate will be created in collaboration with representatives from the Golf Association of Michigan Foundation and the Michigan Golf Alliance.

Additionally, the bill establishes the Golf Association of Michigan Foundation fund within the state treasury, allowing the state treasurer to receive and manage funds for this purpose. The treasurer will oversee the investment of the fund and ensure that any unspent money at the end of the fiscal year remains in the fund rather than reverting to the general fund. Funds raised from the sale of the license plates will be transferred to the state treasurer and subsequently disbursed quarterly to the Golf Association of Michigan Foundation to support various programs that promote golf-related opportunities and community engagement.
