The fairways of the Canlubang Golf and Country Club are set to host a significant event for a worthy cause as the 6th The Gary B. Teves Golf Tournament swings into action on August 22.
Organized by the Gary B. Teves Golf Foundation, established by former Secretary of Finance Gary B. Teves, this annual event is more than just a competition, it’s a vital fundraising platform for the foundation’s ongoing mission to uplift the lives of caddies across the Philippines.
The upcoming tournament serves as a crucial pillar in the foundation’s dual objectives: promoting the beloved sport of golf while simultaneously providing comprehensive support to the often-overlooked individuals who are integral to its success – the caddies.
“The 6th The Gary B. Teves Golf Tournament is a cornerstone of our efforts,” stated a representative from the Gary B. Teves Golf Foundation. “It’s an opportunity for golf enthusiasts and benevolent individuals to come together, enjoy a fantastic day on the course, and directly contribute to the well-being of our caddies. Every swing taken and every sponsorship secured will directly support our health initiatives and provide much-needed assistance to these invaluable members of the golf community.”
The funds raised from the tournament will bolster the foundation’s established health initiatives, which are designed to ensure caddies receive the care and support necessary to lead healthier and more fulfilling lives.
Past successes include the “Gary Teves Tournament for a Cause” in 2019, which provided health insurance coverage to caddies from South Forbes Golf Club, Tagaytay Midlands Golf Club, and Philippine Navy Golf Club. Furthermore, the foundation has consistently provided financial assistance, notably during the challenging COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, and ongoing support for caddies at the South Forbes Golf Club.
The Gary B. Teves Golf Foundation extends an open invitation to golfers, corporate sponsors, and philanthropists to participate in this impactful event. Beyond empowering caddies, the foundation is continuously exploring new avenues to extend its support to a broader underprivileged sector of the Filipino community.
The 6th The Gary B. Teves Golf Tournament promises to be a memorable day of golf, camaraderie, and meaningful contribution.
