Saturday, March 13
7:00pm-8:30pm
Join us for an evening of fundraising, dancing, food & drinks,
all from the comfort of your own home.
Take your crimper off Craigslist ‘cause you’re going to need it. We’re throwing it back to the golden era of telethons: the 1980s! With pleated pants and padded shoulders, your favourite operators will be standing by to take your call amongst a variety of entertainment. So rally your bubble (no bubble too small), dress up, tune in, and get ready to cut up your living room floor with none other than the Famous Players Band.
We all miss having a good reason to dress up, so don't be shy. We'll be sharing your photos during the Live Show - we can't wait to see you in costume!
Our Signature Cocktail: The Don Julio Tequila Sun-Rise-Up!

Summer 2020
Thank you for supporting the Whistler Blackcomb Foundation’s 25th Annual TELUS Golf Classic charity fundraiser, and for helping us make it a big success despite this challenging year. Your support and involvement will help make a significant difference for many amazing charities
and community groups in the Sea to Sky Corridor.
CLICK HERE TO VIEW OUR OFFICIAL THANK YOU AD
The annual TELUS Golf Classic is recognized as one of Whistler’s best tournaments. This year will look a little bit different but we still plan on fundraising the much needed funds for the Sea to Sky Community!
With an abundance of caution, we have changed the format of the event to keep our guests safe and to follow new protocols. Guests will still be able to purchase foursomes but instead of a set date, they will be able to participate on any day between August 1st and the end of the season at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club.
As in many communities, our food banks, outreach and social services programs, domestic violence organizations and many others that we support have been overwhelmed with an exponential increase in people seeking help, and your participation in this event will help them continue this work. Thank you so much in advance for your participation and support!
Location: Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club
Cost: $1,800 per foursome
Includes: 4 players, green fees and cart, warm-up range balls, lunch or dinner, refreshments on cart, Longest Drive and KP contests with prizing*, virtual ongoing leaderboard to track scores, 4 passes to Vallea Lumina, and a replay rate offered at $50/person including cart for same-day play. Prizing provided for winning teams.
Virtual Experiences on Friday, September 11th:
-
4th Annual Heli Ball Drop presented by Blackcomb Helicopters
The Drop took place from a helicopter 25’ above the Practice Facility at the Fairmont Chateau Golf Club. 3000 balls were purchased and 6 landed in the hole! One lucky winner was drawn from a hat and they took home a 2020/21 WB Season Pass AND a Blackcomb Helicopter Experience for 4. -
Virtual Hairfarmers Concert Atop the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Hotel brought to You by Samsung
Viewers tuned in virtually from the comfort of their own home, and 16 dinner guests joined us in-person after purchasing tables via an online auction ahead of time. It was a memorable evening of amazing music, a breathtaking backdrop, and wonderful support from around the globe including Quebec, Tahoe, Australia and many more! We were able to fundraise an additional $15,000 in cash donations during the show, which TELUS so generously matched. -
Online Auction Brought to You by Pepsico
Our online auction closed on Friday, September 11th. With over 170 items to bid on, we raised over $40,000. The auction plays a major role in our fundraising efforts and we are so grateful to all of the businesses who donated despite the difficult year, and to the auction bidders who took home some incredible items!

June 25, 2016
The Whistler Blackcomb Foundation and The Bearfoot Bistro have joined forces to create the most imaginative and memorable fundraising event Whistler has ever hosted. An event so striking in its ambition, it is destined to bring international attention.
A MAGICAL FINE DINING EXPERIENCE FOR A GREAT CAUSE
The price per gondola is $8,500 (all inclusive) and includes an invitation to the pre-dinner cocktail reception, the six-course dinner, with wine pairing served on the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola and the post-dinner party at the Bearfoot Bistro for up to 10 guests. Your private gondola will host up to 10 guests. A tax receipt for the maximum allowable amount will be issued to you based on current Canada Revenue (CRA) standards.
Contact mmadden@whistlerblackcombfoundation.com to reserve your gondola!
THE HEIGHT OF FINE DINING
Imagine a six-course tasting menu from the Bearfoot Bistro served in your private gondola cabin on Whistler Blackcomb’s iconic PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola at an altitude of 424 metres. Whistler’s premier fine dining restaurant and host André Saint-Jacques set the stage for a magical dining experience to be shared amongst colleagues, friends and family. And all in aid of a most-deserving cause. As one of the top names in Canadian cuisine, highly-acclaimed Executive Chef Melissa Craig will create an unforgettable culinary adventure, paired with the finest wines. Dinner will be preceded by a cocktail reception at the top of the mountain and followed by a party in the valley.
