The Archway Community Services Charity Golf Tournament returns for its 8th year on Tuesday, June 24th along with an outstanding fundraising auction and 50/50 raffle.
The annual event brings together community members and local businesses for a day of golf, giving, and goodwill all in support of vital programs and services that serve individuals and families across Abbotsford.
“Our community’s generosity fuels our work at Archway. Over the past eight years we have raised more than $443,000 in support of the 90+ programs that Archway provides. Whether that be supporting newborn babies to seniors, helping those impacted by domestic violence or struggling with mental health issues, addressing food security and homelessness or helping refugees and newcomers settle and build a life in the Fraser Valley. This year, we intend to boost the total raised well past the half million-dollar mark!” said Jacky Gill, Archway Board Member & Golf Committee Chair.
Funds raised through the tournament will support key programs such as Immigrant Youth Services, Meals on Wheels and the Community Van. The Archway Food Bank, Family Centre and Foundry will be featured on course along with supporting hole sponsors.
Mike Gibson, a realtor with Sutton Group WestCoast Realty shared why they are returning as the title sponsor for the fifth year, “in our daily travels as Realtors, we see many diverse needs in the community. Archway gives us the opportunity and the means to help support the needed programs in the region. We are very pleased to give back to the Fraser Valley in this way.”
The associated 50/50 raffle gives participants the opportunity to win up to $10,000 if all tickets are sold. The online auction offers participants the opportunity to win a unique array of items from local restaurants, businesses and retailers.
Raffle tickets can be found at Archway.ca/Raffle and auction items can be found at Archway.ca/Auction. Both will close after the tournament on June 24th at 7:30pm.
The event, presented by Sutton Group WestCoast Realty and supported by the Abbotsford Canucks, will take place at the Ledgeview Golf and Country Club.
