About the Founder's Cup Charity Classic

The Founder's Cup Charity Classic is the annual fundraising event of the
Founder's Cup Foundation. The Directors of the Foundation are like-minded
individuals from a variety of professions and business backgrounds. While
coming from different places, there is absolute consensus on what the
Founder's Cup Foundation is all about. Our communities have needs that won't
be met unless people act. In our perhaps small way we choose to take up that
challenge and hopefully inspire others to do the same. The Founder's Cup has
been raising money for worthy charities since 1995 and during this time has
raised two million dollars. The Founder's Cup Charity Classic was founded by
BC Sports Hall of Famer Ron Jones.
