For the past 18 years The Sanctuary Golf Club has hosted a Charity event in January and during that time this event has raised more than $1.8 million dollars. This year’s event will be held on Jan. 23, and the bulk of its proceeds will be granted to human-needs based, Island nonprofits, for those people in need who deserve a helping hand.

There are a broad spectrum of sponsorship opportunities for golfers and non-golfers alike, ranging from the $7,500 Diamond Partnership, which includes additional rounds of golf and dinner at The Sanctuary Golf Club – a $500 Foundation Partner, which includes Dinner Reception In-a-Box for two – to a $250 Hole Sponsorship. All proceeds go directly to The Sanctuary Golf Club Foundation, whose mission is to support nonprofits that positively impact the lives of people in need living or working on Sanibel or Captiva, and to provide educational opportunity grants to Sanctuary employees and their families.

“The Sanctuary Golf Club’s Members and the Sanibel-Captiva community have warmly embraced this event with their exceptional generosity and commitment to this fundraiser. The Sanctuary Charity Classic allows opportunities for the Membership to contribute and support our community,” said Ken Kouril, Chief Operating Officer of The Sanctuary Golf Club.

Jim DiMarino continued, “This event fills up quickly, so sign up your foursome early. There are non-playing sponsorship levels available if you do not play golf or cannot participate in the event. Your generosity goes to support the Sanibel – Captiva community.”

Due to COVID-19, The Sanctuary Charity Classic will have morning and afternoon tee times, with either a grab-and-go breakfast or lunch available. All sponsors will receive a Dinner Reception In-a-Box with choice of entrees and paired with a bottle of wine. The community’s participation is welcomed and encouraged.
