The PGA of Canada, in collaboration with Golf Canada and the True Patriot Love Foundation, thank you for inquiring about Patriot Golf Day to be held across Canada this Labour Day weekend, Sept. 1-3.
Money raised from Patriot Golf Day will go to the True Patriot Love Foundation, which supports and honours members of the Canadian military and their families. The foundation was founded by a group of citizens dedicated to building bridges between Canadian civilians and their military, in order to better understand and appreciate the sacrifices of soldiers and their families.
In less than three years, the True Patriot Love Foundation has raised millions of dollars for members of the Canadian military and their families and disbursed over $3 million to a variety of military programs, charities and causes, when and where it was needed most. This included providing support for military families, severely injured veterans, mental health, public education, and transition support to civilian life, to name a few.
Golfers who play on Labour Day weekend at participating Patriot Golf Day courses across the country can donate any dollar amount to the initiative.
Enclosed in this Patriot Golf Day you will find:
It is the hope of the PGA of Canada, Golf Canada and the True Patriot Love Foundation that golfers and golf fans from all across will be inspired to participate in Patriot Golf Day 2012. Therefore, your participation this year in Patriot Golf Day will provide a needed link for those in our game to truly touch the lives of those in need.
