Looking for an easy, flexible way to raise funds through golf?
Golf Ontario invites clubs, teams, schools, leagues, workplaces, and community groups to take part in the 1000 Ball Challenge—a fun, low‑lift fundraising program designed to support golf programs right where you live.
Our goal is straightforward: help local groups raise money, grow participation and open the door to golf for more people, with fundraising support from Golf Ontario at the provincial level.
What Is the 1000 Ball Challenge?
The 1000 Ball Challenge puts a golf twist on the popular peer‑to‑peer fundraising model used in walk, run, and ride events.
Participants fundraise in support of golf initiatives that matter to them by hitting 1,000 golf balls — as a team or individually. You set the pace, the format, and the goal.
Simple to organize. Easy to customize. Built for golfers and groups.
What Golf Ontario Provides
To make things easy, Golf Ontario supports your campaign with:
- A dedicated online fundraising page
- Tax receipts for donations of $20 or more, issued through the Golf Canada Foundation
- Fundraising incentives and prizes to encourage participation and giving
- Ongoing administrative and promotional support throughout your campaign
You keep the funds you raise (less a small administrative percentage), so you can reinvest directly into golf programs and initiatives that matter most to your community.
