Vancouver, BC - On Friday, March 24, Sutton announced Canuck Place Foundation as the beneficiary for its annual Sutton Charity Golf Tournament which will take place on May 23, 2006 at the Westwood Plateau. Over thirty Sutton associates will volunteer at the event with more than 200 participants enjoying a day of golf while contributing to the foundation.

"The real estate market enjoyed a very strong year and it is an honour to give back to an excellent charity", remarks Larry Anderson, co-chairman of the tournament. The Sutton Charity Golf Tournament will bring together Sutton associates and offices who will contribute their time and donations to improve the life of children with life-limiting illnesses and their families. These contributions will provide families access to hospice care when hospitals and home care can no longer meet their needs.

"Any organization that responds to the needs of children is an organization worth supporting. I am proud to be co-chairing the tournament with Larry Anderson and I hope we can contribute to the future of Canuck Place!", says John Skender, co-chairman of the tournament. Canuck Place is a story of courage and vision. It is a shining example of the good that comes from individuals and organizations seeing a need in their community and working together to fill it. This vision became reality in November 1995 when Canuck Place opened as North America's first free-standing children's hospice.
