CapriCMW Golf4Kids Day Raises $75,000 for BGC Okanagan!
Each summer, CapriCMW Golf4Kids Day brings businesses and community members across BC out to spend a fun-filled day on the green in support of BGC Okanagan. This year, the event took a different form due to ongoing concerns around the spread of COVID-19. Instead of hosting a golf tournament, we encouraged supporters to book a tee time for August 11 at one of our supporting golf courses (who donated a portion of their green fees for the day), make a direct donation online and bid in the online auction which featured several stay and play experiences in the Okanagan and a WestJet gift of flight for two..
Thanks to all the sponsors, golf courses, golfers and donors, we are extremely excited to share that we raised a total of $75,000!
“Thank you to all the sponsors and donors. With these funds we are able to provide a safe place of belonging, with positive role models for children, youth and families," said Richelle Leckey, Community Engagement Coordinator at BGC Okanagan. "A place where they can experience new opportunities, overcome barriers, build positive relationships and develop confidence and skills for life.”
