Join us in making a difference for children at The Darling Home for Kids. Whether you’re a golf enthusiast, a rally adventurer, a gala lover, or an outdoor enthusiast, there’s something for everyone. Tee up for our DHK Classic, navigate scenic routes in the Car Rally, enjoy an elegant evening at The Darling Butterfly Ball, or experience nature at Wheels. You can participate, sponsor, donate, or volunteer to help raise essential funds. Together, we can bring hope and joy to the children and families at DHK.
Join us on Sunday, June 22nd at the beautiful Kelso Conservation Area. Spend a wonderful day at Kelso with family and friends, kicked off with breakfast before you ride, hike or walk in support of our children and families. After you cross the finish line, enjoy lunch, games, and other activities. Join us for another incredible year of Wheels!
Start the Car!! Join us for an “Amazing Race/Escape Room” style event in support of The Darling Home for Kids on Saturday, July 26th. Bring home the Rally Cup while also raising important funds for The Darling Home for Kids! Teams, provided with turn-by-turn instructions, must rely on the tools in their Rally Kits to navigate to the next check point. We’ve identified cheeky and “punny” points of interest along the route and if you find them, we’ll add points to your final score. Careful – some are harder to find than others and might involve getting out of the car!
Twists, turns and challenging clues – where with the Rally take you? 🚗💨🌟
Tee off with us on Wednesday, September 24th at Royal Ontario Golf Club. In its 28th year, the DHK Classic is our longest running signature event, raising over $2.6 million, helping to build our Home and provide the core programs and services we offer.
Starting with a light breakfast, golfers will spend the day on course in support of medically complex children and their families. On-course activities, sampling opportunities and contests to win incredible prizes, will provide an engaging round. Golfers will gather together for a 19th Hole Cocktail Reception, followed by a late lunch that includes an opportunity to bid on some incredible auction packages.
In 2025, we look forward to crossing the $5 million mark in funds raised from our annual fundraising gala. For over 25 years, our gala has played a vital role in welcoming families through our big red doors. To celebrate this legacy, we are thrilled to unveil a new name for our signature event.
Join us on October 23rd at The Red Door Gala, and help us provide joy, laughter and incredible memories for the medically complex children and their families that come through our doors. This black tie evening will celebrate the impact of your generosity while raising vital funds to help us continue to provide comfort, care, and joyful moments to those who need it most.
