Our 2024 BCF Golf Tournament, held on Saturday July 13th at Richmond Golf Club was attended by over 100 golfers and dinner guests and raised $13,000 in support of our healthcare causes. We are pleased to note that Barbados Canada Foundation's President Charles ‘Phil’ Broome presented donations of $10,000 and $6,000 to the SickKids Caribbean Initiative and Camp Jumoke respectively. The SickKids Caribbean Initiative, which works to improve outcomes for children suffering from cancer and blood disorders from several Caribbean countries including Barbados, was represented by Katie McHugh-Escobar, Director, Community Partnerships and Sherrie James, Director Major Gifts. Camp Jumoke, a summer camp for children with sickle cell anemia, was represented by its President Judy Grandison.

Bring On The Spring 2024: Helping the QEH Save Lives
April 23, 2024
Held at Pearson Convention Center on Saturday, April 13th, Bring On the Spring 2024 received enthusiastic reviews from guests for the outstanding food and entertainment provided, enhanced by the presence of the Wi Motion Toronto Dance Troupe in their colourful Barbadian folk and regimental band costumes.
Bring On the Spring 2024 raised $48,000 with the assistance of our Gold Sponsor – Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc., Marville Travel Ltd., and the accommodations gifted to BCF for the event’s Live and Silent Auctions and Raffle by the
hotels mentioned below. We express our most sincere appreciation to all of our supporters.
This year we committed to donate 3 Patient Transport Monitors to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) and while we fell short of our goal of $65,000 we hope to obtain post-event donations sufficient to cover the $17,000 shortfall, so that we may provide the hospital with all three monitors. In this regard we ask that you kindly make a donation. Your contributions will be appreciated. Please CLICK HERE to donate.
