Three Local Charities to Benefit from Final Roseland Responder Golf Classic of Four-Year Series

Organizers and officials from the 2026 Roseland Responder Golf Classic have announced details for the fourth and final tournament in the series that has already raised $150,000 toward its $200,000 fundraising goal. Proceeds from the tournament will support three local charities while also contributing to Roseland Golf Club’s “Road to 100,” celebrating the club’s 100th anniversary this year.

Funds raised for Canadian Mental Health Association - Windsor-Essex County (CMHA-WECB) will support ongoing mental health education, training, and awareness as part of the Sole Focus Project. Many sessions offered through CMHA-WECB are geared toward helping stakeholders like first responders, medical professionals, youth, and caregivers. 

The Windsor Firefighters Benefit Fund supports their members, individuals and families in need during challenging times, in addition to supporting youth organizations, women’s groups, school programs, various athletic teams, registered charities, and memorials.

The Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics (LETR) engages law enforcement officers worldwide, championing acceptance and inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities, starting first with their own communities.
