All funds raised at the Golf Classic support The Salvation Army’s Community & Family Services programs in Guelph. 

Your support makes a great impact! When you give to The Salvation Army, you are giving to your community. The assistance we provide is unconditional, available to all, and would not be possible without the support of our community and friends like you.

We look forward to seeing you this July swinging clubs in support of The Salvation Army and helping people in need. 

DINNER ONLY OPTION AVAILABLE. CHECK REGISTRATION FORM FOR DETAILS.

More than 1.6 million people receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year across the country – many among the nation’s poor. This includes:

• 3.4 million free meals were served at shelters and in feeding programs

• 4500 people were helped when an emergency or natural disaster struck

• 5050 children went to Salvation Army camps

The effects of poverty are quite serious and deserve our attention:

• It requires people to make painful choices between necessities, such as paying the rent or feeding their kids, going to the dentist or buying a monthly bus pass.

• It often leads to hunger or unhealthy eating, poor health, interrupted schooling, homelessness or poor quality housing, substance abuse, crime, violence and despair.

• Those who experience poverty have a shorter lifespan, and often suffer physically and emotionally.

• Those who live in poverty often require higher than average use of publicly funded programs like welfare, hospitals, police and correctional services which increases taxes.
