2018 will be the 6th year of the Canadian Entertainment Charity Golf Classic which has raised more than $250,000 in support of the non-profit that provides discreet emergency relief to music industry personnel in times of personal hardship and crisis.

“I am excited that our industry peers in Vancouver, with the support of Dan Fraser (Nettwerk Management), and in Montreal/Ottawa with the support of Rubin Fogel (Rubin Fogel Productions), Geneviève Côté (SOCAN) and Erin Benjamin (Music Canada Live), have taken on the challenge to run tournaments in these markets to increase the awareness of  Unison and help raise much needed funds to help those in our community who are in need of crisis  relief”, said Derrick Ross,  Chairman, Unison Benevolent Fund.
