We’re so thankful to have been part of the 35th Annual OTIP (Ontario Teachers Insurance Plan) Charity Golf Classic as both a sponsor and attendee!

One of the day’s highlights — on Hole #7, John Ilias, CIP from CAA hit an unforgettable hole-in-one on the Longest Drive Hole we proudly sponsored! He walked away with a BioPed Footcare gift basket to keep him strong on (and off) the course.

Beyond the fun, it was inspiring to see the community raise over $210,000 in support of Breakfast Club of Canada, Indspire, Kids Help Phone, and United for Literacy. Over the past 35 years, this event has raised more than $3.3 million to support students, educators, and communities across Ontario.

We’re proud to play a small part in this impact — and grateful for the chance to connect with so many passionate partners on and off the green.
