Founder’s Cup Charity

If you have never been to the BC Sports Hall of Fame, you should plan on making a trip to BC Place to take a walk “through memory lane”. It’s a trip you soon won’t forget.

It was announced that on December 10th the BC Sports Hall of Fame was the recipient of a $20,000 donation from the Founder’s Cup Charity Classic.

Past Chair of the BC Sports Hall of Fame and a Director with the Founder’s Cup Charity Classic, Dann Konkin presented Alan Tyan Chair of the BCSHF and Allison Mailer Executive Director of the BCSHF with the donation.

The donation will support the BC Sports Hall of Fame’s Hero In You Youth Education Programs supporting the organization’s mission of Honouring the Past and Inspiring the Future.

Since its inception in 1995 the Founder’s Cup Charity Classic has donated over $250,000 to the BC Sports Hall of Fame.

If you are not sure what the Founders Cup is, here’s a brief bit of info on it.

Conceived as an idea in 1995 to assist charities in the area while at the same time providing sponsors and contributors with the means to have some fun, the Founder’s Cup, as we know it, was born.

After 18 years, we have proudly raised well over $1,900,000 for charities that help change the lives of people where we live as well as for national and international causes that touch us all.
