Festival of Golf raises $110K for Children's Treatment Centre Foundation

The Children’s Treatment Centre Foundation of Chatham-Kent is getting a significant funding boost thanks to a recent golf fundraiser.

The organization held its sixth Annual Festival of Golf on Friday, September 9 and raised over $110,000.

"We had a really great turnout again this year, and are very grateful to the sponsors, golfers and volunteers who returned to support this fun event," said Foundation President Mike Genge. "Monies raised from Festival of Golf will go towards essential programming and services that our kids need and use every day."

Proceeds from the event directly support therapy and services for children and youth, including social work, therapeutic recreation, and music therapy.
