The Archway Community Services Charity Golf Tournament is returning for its 7th year on June 25th.
While the tournament is sold out with 144 golfers, the accompanying 50/50 online raffle and online auction are open to the public.
“Last year we had a fundraising record of $101,500 but we’d love to beat that record again,” said Steve Carlton, Archway’s Past Board President and chair of the tournament organizing committee. “The need in our community is increasing every year which highlights the importance of fundraisers like these to help keep critical programs operating.”
One of the many programs being featured on the course this year is Meals on Wheels, which offers nutritious fresh and frozen meal options for those unable to cook or shop for themselves.
“Every meal delivered represents a commitment to enhancing our clients’ quality of life, fostering independence, and providing a lifeline to those who need it most,” said Alida Swanson, Supervisor for Senior Services at Archway.
“Supporting programs like this and others at Archway creates a stronger, more connected community,” said Carlton.
The tournament also supports Archway programs such as Best for Babies, Community Van, Immigrant Youth Services and more.
Mike Gibson, a realtor with Sutton Group West Coast Realty shared why they are returning as the title sponsor for the fourth year. “Archway is a tremendous organization that strengthens the neighbourhoods we serve. These programs improve the quality of life for everyone, and Archway gives us the opportunity to help those that need it most.”
The 50/50 raffle gives participants the opportunity to win up to $10,000 if all tickets are sold.
Items up for auction include gift baskets, farm fresh blueberries, Abbotsford Canucks game experiences, vintage hockey cards and much more. For the third year, the University of the Fraser Valley has donated a semester’s tuition with up to 15 credits valued at more than $2,400.
Raffle tickets can be found at Archway.ca/Raffle and the auction can be found at Givergy.ca/ArchwayGolf2024. The 50/50 raffle will close after the tournament on June 25th at 7:30pm and the auction will close on June 25th at 8pm.
The event, presented by Sutton Group West Coast Realty and supported by the Abbotsford Canucks, will take place at the Ledgeview Golf and Country Club.
