Local 793 has donated $104,114 to the Toronto General & Western Hospital Foundation cancer program.
The donation was made at the union’s annual dinner dance held Nov. 16 in the OE Banquet Hall.
The funds were raised at the 2013 Gary O’Neill Memorial Golf Tournament held this past summer at RattleSnake Point Golf Club in Milton.
In 2012, the tournament raised $102,000.
Proceeds are used to fund research into esophageal cancer.
Amber Bernard and Josh Lai of Toronto General & Western Hospital Foundation accepted the award on behalf of the foundation.
