TravelBrands raised a whopping $308,224.21 at its 9th Annual Charity Golf Classic last week, with an incredible turnout of suppliers, partners, agents, and employees, all united by a shared commitment to making a difference in the lives of children and families.

These funds will help fuel vital research, clinical care, and new initiatives at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), continuing the fight to improve children's health across Canada.

Watch as TravelPulse Canada Founder and EIC John Kirk speaks with CEO Nathalie Tanious and CIO Roberto Gennaro about the importance of the event.

The day was brimming with delicious food and exciting contests on the course, with standout features like the Oyster Bar, Caesar Bar, food trucks, Rum Tasting, the VANGO VW Van photo booth, and the Talon Grill at the turn. Attendees competed in lively games for a chance to win incredible prizes, including a trip to Bermuda, a 55” TV, and gift cards. The excitement continued with a dazzling silent auction offering jaw-dropping travel prizes and more, culminating in an exhilarating helicopter ball drop - an iconic highlight of the event.
