Ghost Drops Charity Poker
At Ghost Drops, we believe in the power of community and the importance of giving back. This commitment to making a difference inspired us to host the annual Ghost Drops Charity Poker Tournament, an exclusive event that brings together 250+ participants from our friends, family, and the cannabis industry. Over the past two years, this tournament has become a highlight in our calendar, blending excitement, friendly competition, and philanthropy in a memorable gathering.
2022: Supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters Toronto
The inaugural Ghost Drops Charity Poker Tournament in 2022 was a smashing success. With 250+ participants shuffling, dealing, and competing, the atmosphere was electric. The event was not just about the thrill of the game; it was also about making a meaningful impact.
We proudly supported Big Brothers Big Sisters Toronto, a local charity dedicated to providing mentorship and guidance to young people facing adversity. Through their one-to-one mentoring programs, Big Brothers Big Sisters Toronto empowers these young individuals to reach their full potential, fostering a brighter and more promising future. The funds raised during the tournament helped further their mission, making a significant difference in the lives of many young Torontonians.
2023: Benefitting Chai Lifeline Canada
Building on the success of the previous year, the 2023 Ghost Drops Charity Poker Tournament once again brought together our vibrant community for a night of high stakes and high impact. This time, we turned our support to Chai Lifeline Canada, an organization dedicated to supporting children and parents facing life-threatening or lifelong illnesses.
Participants competed for over $35,000 in prizes, knowing that their contributions would help provide vital support to families in need. Chai Lifeline Canada offers a range of services that address the emotional, social, and financial challenges these families face, ensuring they receive the comprehensive care and support they deserve.
