Your Golf Committee 2025
It is incredible to note that 2025 marks the 25th year of our signature event.
While much has changed in the world and on the Concordia Campus over that time, many things remain very much intact: our values, our promise to the community, and our collaboration. This entire committee, including each and every one of you, has come together in our united purpose year after year with even greater commitment. Your long-standing dedication is the backbone of our event’s success.
The desire to make a notable difference in the community and deliver a memorable experience for our golfers and sponsors drives the people who volunteer for this event. We offer kudos to those who invest their time to make this event a success. Your efforts have a profound impact on our community, and we are proud to be part of this collective endeavor.
We continue to enjoy excellent partnerships with all of you who rise to the challenge each year—golf clubs in hand and heart on your sleeves—to ensure this event is a success year after year. Our partnership with Concordia Hospital, Concordia Foundation, and Concordia Wellness Projects Inc. gives us meaning and is the reason for this event.
CORI: Surgical Robot System 2024
This is the latest addition to our surgeons’ toolkit and has been funded by the Concordia Foundation. CORI =Core of Real Intelligence is a handheld, portable, and intuitive system designed for robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery. Thanks to our generous donors and golfers, our surgeons can deliver even better patient care and impact with this system.
New Patient Chairs for Urgent Care in 2023
In 2023, you helped us raise enough money to outfit our Urgent Care with comfortable patient chairs so that people can wait comfortably for medical assistance in our Urgent Care.
OR #5 Completed in 2023
Our “Cause” and focus for 2022-2023 was to raise funds to renew the Operating Room at Concordia Hospital to alleviate the backlog of surgeries. A huge thank you to the Kothari Family for their gift of $150,000 for this project and the proceeds from the golf tournament, which are making this a reality.
Day Surgery Completed in 2022
We were thrilled to have met and exceeded our fundraising goal the past year and are thrilled to report that the new Day Surgery at the hospital has also met its goal. Construction has been completed, welcoming patients and staff to a new sparkling space.
On behalf of each volunteer, committee member, Concordia Foundation Board, and staff, we want to express our deepest gratitude for your unwavering support. We thank you and look forward to seeing you on August 13, 2025.
Let’s chip this one in together!
