Durham College (DC) students in financial need will benefit from the great generosity shown at the 2024 Regional Chair’s Classic in Memory of Roger Anderson.

On Thursday, June 13 at Deer Creek Golf and Country Club in Ajax, 200 golfers and generous sponsors joined Regional Chair John Henry for the 26^th tournament, which also supports students at Ontario Tech University and patient-focused programs at Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences.

With $260,000 raised this year, the total amount of funds raised since the tournament’s inception is now more than $7.9 million.

“Every year, this tournament raises money for our students in need and for Ontario Shores Centre’s invaluable youth programs,” said Regional Chair John Henry. “I can think of no better way to honour Roger Anderson’s legacy of service than by spending a beautiful day on the golf course in support of these great causes.”

DC President Dr. Elaine Popp joined Henry; Tracy Clegg, CEO, Ontario Shores Foundation; Sarah Rasile, Director, Alumni and Donor Engagement, Ontario Tech University; and Roger Anderson’s son Warren for the cheque presentation to share their gratitude on behalf of their respective institutions.

Next year’s event is set for Thursday, June 12, 2025.
