Community Involvement

Bear Mountain Resort is actively involved in the community by making donations to charitable/not-for-profit organizations focused on helping children in Victoria and on Vancouver Island. In particular, for 2010 we have already made a significant commitment to support Jeneece Place as it relates to the TELUS World Skins Game, the MS Society, C-FAX Community Awards and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

For Bear Mountain to make an effective contribution to the community and to allow us to focus our efforts, we will continue to primarily support organizations and charities related to children.

If your organization is interested in applying to Bear Mountain Resort for a donation or sponsorship contribution, we have outlined the necessary information required for you to include within your written request.

For 2010, we are pleased to provide in-kind products for support, such as; golf rounds, Mountainside Athletic Club passes, or Bear Mountain Resort products(apparel, golf balls, etc.). We will not provide cash donations.

Eligibility:

To be eligible for sponsorship you must:

  • Be a registered local not for profit organization
  • Submit your request in writing at least 30 days prior to the event or project
