The ATU Local 113 annual golf tournament helps create awareness and raises funds for much-needed resources for multiple sclerosis (MS) research in Canada and the USA. Canada has one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis in the world, with an estimated 90,000 Canadians living with the disease. Over the years, Local 113 has raised approximately $2 million for MS research.
We had a great turnout at the golf tournament held on Sunday, August 18, 2024, at Woodington Lake Golf Club in Tottenham, Ontario, with over 140 participants and over 20 volunteers and staff working to make this event a success. As we do every year, the popular event was sold out within a few weeks of opening registrations.
Marvin Alfred, President, ATU Local 113, said, “The ATU 113 MS Golf Tournament is a flagship charity event for us. The funds raised assist the MS Society of Canada’s research work. We want to thank our members and sponsors for their generous and continued support in making this a highlight event of the summer. We will continue our fundraising efforts to support research work addressing this debilitating disease and we look forward to medical advances that will help those impacted.”
ATU Local 113 thanks our Black Tee sponsors Ursel Phillips Fellows Hopkins LLC (UPFH), ATU International, Trillium Sales, RCR Legal Services, as well as our Gold Tee sponsors Wasatch Global Investors and Triovest Realty Advisors for contributing to our success in this fund-raising effort.
