Highlights from the Foundation’s 15th Pro-Am Golf Tournament

On June 8, under sunny skies, the Montreal Country Club hosted the 15th edition of our Pro-Am Golf Tournament, presented in collaboration with the Quebec PGA.

On this occasion, many participants had opportunity to play alongside a Quebec PGA professional. Expert advice, technical tips, and insights from the professional circuit helped make their experience both enriching and enjoyable.

A mobilization with a meaningful impact

Beyond the joy of the game, this day was driven by a common goal: supporting the well-being of seniors. Mission accomplished! Thanks to the generosity of all the individuals and business partners who rallied to the cause, $255,000 was raised for the Foundation.

This sum will fund scientific research and innovative projects that improve the quality of care, advance knowledge about aging, and promote the well-being of seniors.
