Since the 2022 tournament was so successful, there's also the opportunity for non-profits to apply for secondary grants from that tournament as there's money left over from it. Council's golf tournament is held annually in support of local non-profits, and has raised over $1.2 million for community organizations since its inception. Last year the tournament was Council's most successful yet. It was held on Sept. 7, 2022 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley — a club that's going to become the home of Golf Canada.  Abbeyfield Caledon, a non-profit seniors' residence in Caledon East, was the primary recipient of the 2022 Caledon Council Community Golf Tournament (CCCGT) grant. The residence received $75,000 to replace its roof and shore up some insulation. Abbeyfield will receive the money in installments as it completes its renovations. In total, the 2022 tournament raised $210,450, with net proceeds of $124,088 after $86,361 of expenses were accounted for. Abbeyfield Caledon received $75,000 of the proceeds, and on June 28 last year, Council approved a motion to grant $2,974.12 of tournament proceeds for rental fees relating to the Raffaele Scerbo Memorial Tournament.  This means there's $52,502 left for the secondary grant program, which can be applied to until January 31. Of that $52,502, $2,000 is to be used for two $1,000 scholarships — the Doug and Doreen Beffort Legacy Scholarship awards. The scholarships can also be applied for until January 31. Non-profits can also apply to be the primary grant recipient of the 2023 tournament, again until January 31. Those seeking to apply for a primary grant, secondary grant, or scholarship can do so at caledon.ca/en/government/community-grants.aspx. Full rules on eligibility and information on how to apply are available on the webpage. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2023-01-12 11:33:02 Post date GMT: 2023-01-12 16:33:02 Post modified date: 2023-01-12 11:33:06 Post modified date GMT: 2023-01-12 16:33:06 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
