Our inaugural season of Golf Gives was a huge success. A big thank you goes out to all of the participants who donated $5 in support of the Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive For Kids benefitting The Mike Weir Foundation and the Children’s Miracle Network. Every $5 donation helps Mike Weir accomplish his goal of raising $10 million for children’s health care through the Mike Weir Foundation. Also a big thank you goes out to all of the courses who lent the Golf Gives program one of their par 3’s to host the Hit The Green challenges. Congratulations to NGCOA Canada member facilities and Golf Gives participants who raised over $102,000 in support of Children’s Hospital Foundations across Canada.
