The Ryan Williams Drive for CHEO

June 16 - Cloverdale Golf and Country Club

My name is Ryan Williams and I would like to invite you to join me in giving back to a place that continues in giving back so much to our community- The Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario.

Since birth I have been battling a rare condition that has required ongoing care from the wonderful people at CHEO. I am so grateful for the amazing care I’ve received that with the help of family, Max Keeping and many others, I host a fundraising golf tournament called the Drive for CHEO. I am proud to say that over the past 9 years we have raised over $340,000.00!
Together, we have purchased three pieces of operating equipment as well as earmarking over $60,000 last year to Mental Health Research that will benefit many children every day.
The Ryan Williams Fund is committed to making CHEO one of the most respected paediatric care facilities in Canada. That is why this year we would like to focus on purchasing an Ophthalmology Scanner. This is essentially an Ultra Sound machine for the eyes. The need is critical! With your support, we can help detect problems early in order to prevent future damage and serious issues from occurring.

The 10th annual Drive for CHEO will take place June 16th at the Cloverdale Golf and Country Club. Your support would be greatly appreciated! I invite you to join me in making the difference in the life of a child!
