The Air Canada Foundation’s fifth annual golf tournament netted $1 million in support of organizations focused on health and well-being of children in Canada. The tournament was held July 11 at the Saint Raphaël Golf Club, Québec, and featured more than 300 golfers from across North America. It included a full day of golf followed by a cocktail-style dinner, silent and live auctions of items donated by tournament partners and Air Canada Foundation supporters. As a registered not-for-profit organization, the Air Canada Foundation’s mission is to grant children’s wishes, alleviate child poverty and help connect sick children to the medical care they need. In 2015, the Foundation granted more than $4.7 million in support of Canadian registered charities.
