It can help change the trajectory of a young person\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>The Children\u2019s Aid Foundation of Ottawa (CAFO)\u2019s Charity Golf Tournament, in partnership the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), brought 150 business and community leaders together Sept. 9 at the Canadian Golf and Country Club for a day of golf, connection and giving back to children, youth and families involved with Ottawa\u2019s child welfare system.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the tournament raised more than $38,000 in net proceeds to support education, youth transition, life enrichment opportunities and other essential needs for vulnerable children and youth involved with child welfare.<\/p>\n<p>The impact can be as practical as providing a safe bed to sleep in, or as transformative as giving a child a summer camp experience, helping a young person pursue post secondary education or discover a new passion.<\/p>\n<p>For Ottawa\u2019s business community, the tournament is an opportunity to connect with colleagues, clients and community partners while making a meaningful local impact. Through golfing, sponsorship and volunteering, participants help create opportunities and brighter futures for children and youth in our community.<\/p>\n<p>The BDC\/CAFO Charity Golf Tournament shows what\u2019s possible when Ottawa\u2019s business and charitable communities come together to support local children and youth.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-698805\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Golf-2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-698806\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Golf-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"\/>L-R: Ethan Nicol, Tanner O\u2019Neil, Gerald Nelson, Cathy Deschenes and Rebecca Plane (all of Cliniconex).<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-698807\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Golf-4-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"\/>Photo booth partner Rachel Horsley of Velma the Shutterbus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Event Date: 09\/09\/2026Organizer: Walter Noble A day on the golf course can do much more than bring people&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":932963,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194295],"tags":[49,48,20739],"class_list":["post-932962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ottawa","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-ottawa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/932962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=932962"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/932962\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/932963"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=932962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=932962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=932962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
