Last week's "Giving Back" charity gala was an outstanding success. The gala was in support of Opportunity International Canada, a micro-finance charity that works with women entrepreneurs in the third word helping them break the cycle of poverty by giving them the tools, funds and training to succeed.

With the generous support and participation of National Club members and our sponsors and contributors - and with a matching donor - this year's Giving Back gala raised approximately $90,000 for Opportunity International. Together with the fundraising golf tournament held earlier this year, the National Club raised a total of approximately $120,000 for Opportunity International - a new record for The National Club.

Since it was begun seven years ago, The National Club's Giving Back program has raised and donated approximately $450,000 for charities.
