Golf for Kids 2025

2025 Fundraising Campaign

Thanks to your generosity, Golf for Kids has been able to invest the $450,000 raised in 2024 into local children’s charities, including filling 12 Dreams for Help Fill A Dream. These funds are making a real difference in the lives of many kids and families in our communities.

Your support helped us contribute to an incredible group of local organizations, including:

  • CFAX Santas Anonymous
  • KidSport Greater Victoria
  • Victoria Youth Empowerment Society
  • Ronald McDonald House
  • Island Kids Cancer Association
  • PISE (Pacific Institute for Sport Education) – Family Day

Over the past 25+ years, Golf for Kids has built an incredible legacy of giving. Thanks to the unwavering support of sponsors, players, volunteers, and donors like you, we’ve been able to help thousands of children across Vancouver Island. The need for support continues to grow, and together, we can rise to meet it.

That’s why, in 2025, we’re excited to launch another digital fundraising campaign, featuring a silent auction, sponsorship opportunities, and donation options to continue raising critical funds for local kids. While the format has evolved over the years, the heart of Golf for Kids remains the same – helping children and families in need.

Your support is what makes this all possible. Every bid, every donation, and every show of generosity brings us closer to another milestone of giving.

Stay tuned for more details and our 2025 Sponsorship Package.

Message from our Title Sponsor!

Don Mann Excavating has been a supporter of Golf for Kids for many years. They are a local multi-generational company with longstanding roots in the Vancouver Island construction industry. Their ongoing Title Sponsorship means we were able to make this year’s event one to remember!

I continue to feel incredibly blessed to be part of an industry that leads with heart and believes in giving back, standing together, and lifting families when they need it most. Golf for Kids has always reflected that spirit, and as we turn the page to 2025, I’m once again reminded of the incredible impact we can make when we come together.

The 25th anniversary was a milestone none of us will forget. The energy, emotion, and generosity reminded me why this event matters so deeply. It’s not just about fundraising. It’s about showing families they are not alone. It’s about standing in the gap for kids who need our support and doing so with compassion, grace, and humility.

This year, our silent auction is going entirely online, which means we have an even greater opportunity to reach more people, raise more support, and make a more significant impact than ever before. But we can’t do it without you.

Whether donating an item, sharing the auction with your network, or placing a bid, your support matters. Your actions will help create real change for children and families facing some of life’s toughest challenges.

I ask you to join me in making Golf for Kids 2025 our most impactful year yet. Let’s show that the power of a caring community is still strong. Let’s unite once more to give hope, spark joy, and be part of something that makes a difference.

One act of generosity at a time, we are changing lives.

With heartfelt thanks,

– Trevor Mann, Don Mann Excavating Ltd.
