Grant Thornton Raises Over US$18,000 for Charities at Annual Golf Championship

The seventh annual Grant Thornton Golf Championship, in aid of the YMCA of the Cayman Islands and the Cayman Islands Humane Society, raised over US$18,000. 

On Thursday, 16 November, Grant Thornton Cayman Islands welcomed over 100 budding golfers to the North Sound Golf Club for a full day of fundraising initiatives, fun golf competitions and to crown the 2023 ‘Grant Thornton Championship Golfers of the Year’.

“Our mission is to inspire youth and build stronger and healthier communities,” says Jeff Peterson, CEO of the YMCA. “Grant Thornton’s kind donation will support this mission and help us address the unique challenges of our society in a pro-active and compassionate way.”

“We are delighted to receive Grant Thornton’s continued support for the seventh year,” says Cassandra McAfee of the Cayman Islands Humane Society, “With their help, we are able to give ongoing care to unwanted animals, find them homes and support the community in all aspects of animal welfare.”

“Our annual Golf Championship has become Grant Thornton’s flagship fundraising event of the year and we are thrilled to support two fantastic local organisations who do so much in our community,” says Greg O’Driscoll, Partner and Head of Asset Management and Business Development at Grant Thornton Cayman Islands. 

Congratulations to the 2023 winning team, including Heather Wyckoff, Stef Dimitriou, Gavan McGuire and Greg O'Driscoll. 

“A huge thank you to all of our guests who dug deep on the day and to our headline sponsors, Kirk Freeport and TRAC Automotive, who made such a great day on the course possible,” O’Driscoll continues. “Lastly, thank you to all local businesses that donated prizes and to the team at the North Sound Golf Club.”
