The Chatham-Kent Health Alliance Foundation’s 20th Annual Charity Golf Tournament has set a new record.
The sold-out event netted $151,457 for the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance (CKHA) – its largest amount ever.
CKHAF president and CEO Christine Mitchell called the tournament one for the record books.
“To raise more than $150,000 through a single-day event is a testament to the strength of our community and the passion that so many individuals and organizations share for supporting local health care,” said Mitchell in a media release. “From our golfers and sponsors to the hardworking volunteers behind the scenes, this event was a shining example of what we can accomplish together.”
Held at Maple City Country Club, the tournament welcomed 128 golfers, supported by 20 volunteers and 35 event partners. This year’s winning foursome of Owen Dorssers, Jason Dorssers, Finn O’Brien, and Patrick O’Brien took home top honours.
Proceeds from the tournament will support the highest priority needs at CKHA, helping to fund life-changing medical equipment and facility upgrades at CKHA’s Chatham and Wallaceburg hospital sites.
This milestone 20th anniversary tournament celebrated two decades of community impact and generosity, and CKHAF is already looking ahead to next year’s tournament.
