3^rd Annual Manitoba Golf Tourney
Celebrates Sunshine,
Love and Hope.

August 19, 2021

Despite the challenges and uncertainty COVID-19 brought to all our lives, the high-spirited individuals, and supporters of our Winnipeg Pay it Backward Foundation team helped pull off another successful summer golf tournament! Although there were a few less golfers than in previous years, and a full sit-down, post-game dinner was unfortunately not possible, our partner organizations stepped up as they always have, to ensure we were still able to hit our annual goal for the year and make a tangible difference for and in the lives of those who really need us.

As a result of the continued kindness and generosity of all those who participated, either through financial support or through volunteer roles, we were able to raise $15,000 in benefit of two organizations and causes very dear to our heart. Siloam Mission has been a partner and friend of The Pay It Backward Foundation since we launched our efforts in Manitoba in 2018, and in 2020 we also added a very important cause to our mission – the great people behind the organizations supporting “Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. We are committed to these groups for the dedicated and wonderful work they all do for our communities.

The support provided for our 3^rd Annual tourney also ensured our “Street Socks for the Homeless” campaign could flourish once again in 2021!

Once again, we were blessed with beautiful weather for the 3rd year in row and good fun was had by all. Unfortunately, no one was able to win the hole in one contest, but there’s always room for next year. 😉
