We are incredibly grateful to the amazing team behind Putting Fore Paul, who chose CMHA Grey Bruce as this year’s charity recipient and presented an incredible $10,000 donation, to CMHA Grey Bruce on Tuesday, July 14th, from their annual golf tournament held in Paul’s memory.

On July 11th at Stone Tree Golf & Fitness, golfers, sponsors, volunteers, donors, and supporters came together for the 5th Anniversary of Putting Fore Paul – a day filled with community, connection, remembrance, and generosity. What began as a way to honour Paul’s memory has grown into a remarkable community tradition that continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others in our community.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to:

🏌️ Every golfer who registered and hit the course
🤝 Every sponsor, donor, and hole sponsor who contributed to the event’s success
🙌 Every volunteer who gave their time and energy
📣 Everyone who helped spread the word and support the cause

And most importantly, thank you to the Putting Fore Paul Committee.

Organizing an event of this scale takes countless hours, tremendous dedication, and a whole lot of heart. For five years, you have worked tirelessly to bring this event to life, creating a lasting legacy that not only honours Paul but also strengthens and supports the community he cared so deeply about. Your passion, commitment, and hard work are truly inspiring, and we are deeply honoured to have been selected as this year’s charity partner.

This incredible donation will help CMHA Grey Bruce continue providing vital mental health and recovery services, supports, education, and programming for individuals and families across Grey and Bruce counties. At a time when the need for mental health support continues to grow, community-led initiatives like Putting Fore Paul make a real and lasting impact.

To everyone who participated, donated, volunteered, sponsored, and supported this year’s tournament, thank you. Together, you are helping cultivate hope, resilience, and community for those who need it most.

From all of us at CMHA Grey Bruce, thank you for your generosity, your compassion, and congratulations on making the 5th Anniversary of Putting Fore Paul such an incredible success.
