HomeLife’s 12th Annual Charity Golf Classic, held recently in Surrey, B.C., raised $45,000 for Canuck Place Children’s Hospice.

The hospice provides specialized pediatric palliative care for children living with life-threatening illnesses and support for their families throughout British Columbia.  It is an inter-disciplinary team consisting of a diverse group of healthcare professionals, support staff and volunteers providing 24-hour, seven-days-a-week care and support.

The golf tournament’s fundraising was combined with the Ride 4 Hope, a one-day, 200-km bike ride from Hope to Morgan Crossing.
