MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN EDUCATION
One Birdie at a time.
CONGRATULATIONS TO MAVERICK FOR HIS WIN AT THE RSM CLASSIC ON SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2024!
Maverick McNealy is a 29 year old professional golfer, playing his 7th season on the PGA Tour. Maverick was a former San Jose Junior Sharks hockey player through high school, where he attended the Harker School in San Jose, California. He is the oldest of 4 brothers and currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada for the 20 weeks a year he is home!!
In 2013, Maverick decided that smashing drives was a better path than getting smashed into the boards on the ice rink, and earned a spot as an unranked junior golfer on the Stanford Men’s Golf team. Maybe Coach Ray had a soft spot for other hockey players, because Maverick only received one other Division 1 offer to play before Stanford! In four years, he earned a B.S. in Management Science and Engineering and eleven collegiate victories, tying a program record…
Maverick’s Next Goal is Another $1M
- Built an interactive video player so students can engage with videos instead of passively watching them.
- Helped build easier-to-use authoring tools for teachers with ready-made layouts and templates.
- Launched several partners such as Katy ISD, Baylor University, and First Tee!
The Impact of Your Generous Contributions
I couldn’t be more excited to be playing in my 7th season on the PGA Tour.
My goal this season is 400 birdies! I made 464 last season.
Making a difference in education is something the Curriki team and I are very passionate about, and we wouldn’t be able to make this impact without all of your generous contributions of all sizes.

Bank of Utah Black Desert Championship
The Black Desert Resort hosted the first PGA Tour event in Utah in over 60 years in the fall of 2024. The Black Desert Resort—home to a Top 100-ranked course crafted by legendary designer Tom Weiskopf—brought PGA TOUR action back to Southern Utah. Framed by striking lava fields and red rock landscapes, each hole offers spectacular 360-degree views and the backdrop of Snow Canyon State Park. One of the signature holes of the Par-71, 7,371-yard course is #7, a long par 5 with a semi-blind tee shot, lava islands in the fairway, and a Pebble Beach-esque uphill second shot to a small, elevated, lava-rock-flanked green.

The State of Education
Making a difference in education is something the Curriki team and I are very passionate about, and we wouldn’t be able to make this impact without all of your generous contributions of all sizes. I couldn’t be more excited to get going in 2025!
A few of the amazing things Curriki has done this year are: built an interactive video player so students can engage with videos instead of passively watching them, helped build easier-to-use authoring tools for teachers with ready-made layouts and templates, and launched several partners such as Katy ISD, Baylor University, and First Tee!
