COVID-19 GOLF RELIEF FUND
Golf Canada and the Golf Canada Foundation have joined together to launch the COVID-19 GOLF RELIEF FUND, directed to help golf course employees stay safe and to encourage additional play for front-line workers and juniors to experience the physical and mental benefits of golf.
The effort is supported by individual donors and industry partners through donations and the RELIEF FUND digital sweepstakes beginning July 28th, 2020.
*All donations over $20 will receive a tax receipt.

What types of assistance are available?
The COVID-19 GOLF RELIEF FUND will focus on two primary areas:
1) To maintain the momentum the industry has enjoyed post-lockdown, the Relief Fund encourages play while keeping golfers and course employees safe. The Relief Fund will subsidize non-medical PPE (personal protective equipment), as well as sanitization, hygiene, and protective material expenses.
2) To thank front-line workers and help juniors increase social interactions and outdoor activity, the RELIEF FUND will subsidize rounds for both groups to enjoy the physical and mental benefits of golf.
The first phase of the RELIEF FUND will distribute funding to a maximum of $1000 per club, with applications being reviewed and disbursed by Golf Canada Foundation on a rolling first-come, first-served basis until the fund has been depleted. It is our intention to continue to raise funds in the hopes of continuing to a second phase of funding.
