July 31, 2024; Linamar Corporation’s (TSX:LNR) Skyjack division is proud to again support the annual McFadden’s Movement Celebrity Charity Golf Classic, as the title sponsor.

Taking place at Victoria Park East Golf Club on July 19th, the fourth annual tournament benefits McFadden’s Movement, an organization striving to help and bring awareness to mental health issues among athletes starting at the grassroots level. Following an incredibly successful inaugural event in July 2021, raising over $18,000 for mental health resources, the Movement – with the ongoing support of Skyjack – carried the momentum into 2022 and 2023 raising over $20,000 and $27,000 respectively. 2024 brought in a record high at over $30,000!

"Linamar and now Skyjack have been one of the Movement's biggest supporters since the very beginning in 2016,” shared Garrett McFadden, McFadden’s Movement Founder. “Coming up to what will be our eighth donation; none of this would have been possible without the incredible support of Skyjack and their team. We can't thank everyone enough for believing in the cause and showing up for the Movement year after year."

The shotgun style tournament features celebrity golfers, allowing golfers to register as a threesome, getting the chance to play with local celebrities including past and present Guelph Storm players.

“Skyjack is proud to again support McFadden’s Movement as they raise money for mental health resources,” said Malcolm Early, Skyjack’s Vice President of Marketing. “We are always keen to give back to our community and McFadden’s Movement does so in a meaningful way with lasting impact.”

All proceeds raised from the tournament are in support of mental health resources. To date, McFadden’s Movement has raised over $128,000 for mental health resources such as WES For Youth Online and the Canadian Mental Health Association, Waterloo-Wellington branch.
