Champion of the Crescent 2025
Champion of the Crescent 2025, presented by EllisDon, brought together corporate partners, community leaders, and passionate paddlers—all united for one important purpose: supporting youth mental health programs. As the regional centre for acute youth mental health, Surrey Memorial Hospital supports children and young adults from all over the Lower Mainland, making this event’s impact reach far beyond the shoreline.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised $225,433 on July 18, 2025! These vital funds will directly support youth through programs like art therapy, therapeutic writing, and sensory interventions, helping them navigate some of life’s toughest moments with the care they need.
This day wouldn’t be possible without the commitment and generosity of our sponsors. Thank you to:
- Presenting Sponsor: EllisDon
- Course Sponsor: Houle
- Stage Sponsor: Flynn Group of Companies
- Picnic Sponsor: Safe Software
- Fun Zone Sponsor: Surrey Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society
