BBOT raises $10K for hospice society

The Burnaby Board of Trade raised $10,000 at its annual charity golf tournament last week at Riverway Golf Course.

This year the money will go to support Burnaby Hospice Society, which provides compassionate care to individuals and families during the end-of-life journey.

The money raised included a $5,000 matching contribution by Scotiabank.

“We managed to raise a tremendous amount of money for the Burnaby Hospice Society, a very worthy cause, and everyone who participated had a wonderful time," said BBOT president and CEO Paul Holden. "We couldn’t have done it without the help of our sponsors and volunteers who deserve a ton of credit in making the day such a triumph.”
