Petersburg, ON, October 14, 2025 – The Erb Group proudly hosted its 32nd Annual Charity Golf Tournament at Rebel Creek Golf Club last month, uniting 130 employees, partners, and suppliers for a day of friendly competition, connection, and giving back.
This annual event is a longstanding tradition at The Erb Group, raising essential funds to support organizations that make a meaningful difference in the local community. This year’s tournament raised over $20,000 in support of The Wilmot & Wellesley Resource Centre, Tri-County Mennonite Homes and Interfaith Counselling Centre.
These three local organizations are dedicated to improving lives and strengthening the neighbourhoods The Erb Group proudly serves. This year’s donations bring total contributions to more than $600,000 since the event’s inception in 1994.
With the generous support of attendees and sponsors, the donations raised will enable these organizations to continue delivering vital services, including food security initiatives, mental health support, and community-building programs that benefit residents throughout Waterloo Region.
“The generosity and spirit we see at this tournament every year truly represent what our company and industry are all about; people coming together to make a difference,” said Wendell Erb, Chief Executive Officer.
“We’re so thankful to everyone who joined us and for helping us continue this meaningful tradition.”
As a family-owned company with a mission to bring food to families’ tables, The Erb Group is proud to continue supporting charitable initiatives that align with its core values of community, care, and connection.
