Back the tournament. Fund the work.
Corporate partnership fuels the day — and the day fuels the fight against child trafficking. Net sponsor dollars flow to BridgeNorth and local GTA charities. You get visibility, a room full of peers, and a story worth telling.
150+ guests who make decisions at their companies.
Four reasons to partner with us.
A focused event with a specific cause. Sponsors get visibility, peer-company exposure, and a story their team actually cares about.
Premium brand placement.
Logo on the DFC homepage, hole signage, event video screens, printed collateral, and social posts before and after the day.
A room you want to be in.
Four rounds of golf, lunch, dinner, and an evening program with founders, operators, and family offices across the GTA.
Dollars that do something.
Net sponsor dollars flow directly to BridgeNorth — our 2026 lead partner — and local GTA charities funding safe-home care, rescue, and long-term recovery.
Something worth telling.
Every sponsor gets a social asset kit post-event — photos, a short highlight reel, and copy you can share with employees and customers.
Four ways to back the day.
Single hole to full title — pick the level that fits. All tiers include post-event recognition and a tax receipt for the eligible portion.

See all partnersDon't see the right fit?
We build custom packages for in-kind sponsors, prize donors, cocktail reception underwriters, auction contributors, and anyone with something specific in mind. A ten-minute call with Pauline is usually all it takes.
The practical stuff.
Anything else? Reach Pauline directly at pauline@drivingforchange.ca or (416) 409-3738.
When's the sponsorship deadline?
Tiers fill in order — Title is exclusive, Platinum and Gold are limited. We lock the final sponsor list four weeks before the tournament (late August) so we have time to produce signage, bottles, and the event video. Earlier is better, especially for Title.
How do I pay?
Interac e-Transfer with auto-deposit to info@drivingforchange.ca. You'll get a unique reference code (e.g. DFC-2026-XXXXX) after you register. Cheque and wire transfer available on request — call (416) 409-3738.
Will I get a tax receipt?
Yes — issued by our charity partner BridgeNorth, not by DFC. Receipts cover the eligible donation portion of your sponsorship (the amount above the fair market value of the golf, food, and swag your golfers receive). Contact Pauline if you have questions about your specific tier.
What format and deadline for my logo?
Vector preferred (SVG, EPS, or AI). High-res PNG on transparent background also works. We need it at least three weeks before the tournament to hit the signage and bottle printing deadlines. Email it to info@drivingforchange.ca.
Can we send a different team of golfers?
Absolutely. Your company sponsors the spot, not the person. You can swap golfer names up until two weeks before the event. Employees, clients, partners — whoever represents your business best.
What if we want to donate a prize instead of (or in addition to) a tier?
Auction and raffle prize donations are very welcome. Vacation packages, golf equipment, sports tickets, and experiential prizes all perform well. Prize donors are recognized at the gala and in post-event communications. Email Pauline to discuss.
Is sponsorship refundable?
Sponsorships are non-refundable once signage production begins (three weeks out). Before that, we can convert your sponsorship to a fully tax-deductible donation. In the rare case of event cancellation, proceeds are converted into a donation — with a tax receipt issued through BridgeNorth.
Pick your tier.
Title, Platinum, Gold, or Hole — or something custom. Lock it in before signage production starts in August.
