Drake's OVO Golf Classic Raises Funds for Toronto Health Network

On July 30, OVO hosted its second annual Charity Golf Classic in Toronto, featuring 91 teams and 362 golfers across three sold‑out courses. The event, presented as an OVO production rather than a personal appearance by Drake, combined luxury amenities—including custom OVO apparel, individual lockers and Rolls‑Royce transport—with a philanthropic focus.

Proceeds supported Hennick Humber River Health, a hospital network serving northwest Toronto, with Generation Capital acting as the presenting sponsor. The partnership aimed to increase awareness and financial backing for the local health system, leveraging Drake’s celebrity influence and OVO’s brand reach.

The tournament marked a significant growth from its inaugural edition, highlighting OVO’s expanding golf‑related merchandise line and its ability to blend entertainment, sport and charitable giving.
