ABOUT US
Golf Balls With a Purpose
Founded by Marylou Gollert, a retired Principal and golfer, the Golf Ball Lady collects gently used golf balls from around the Collingwood, Southern Georgian Bay and GTA areas. Each ball is cleaned, sorted, and resold locally, with proceeds helping support My Friend’s House, a local shelter supporting women and children escaping abuse.
Raising over $140,000 and counting…This is more than a golf ball shop, it’s a local story of kindness, reuse, and people coming together one ball at a time.
​
Every donated ball, every purchase, and every volunteer’s support helps turn something small into something deeply meaningful for the community.

Giving Back
Every purchase helps raise funds for My Friend’s House, supporting women and children in need of safety, care, and community support.
Reuse With Purpose
Lost and donated golf balls are cleaned, sorted, and given a second life instead of going to waste.
Community
Golf Ball Lady is powered by local golfers, donors, neighbours, and supporters who believe small acts can make a big difference.
