Memorial Fund

​Download - Memorial Fund Donation form
The OLBA Memorial Fund has been established to support the organization’s programs aimed at promoting the sport of lawn bowls and ensuring its long-term viability in Ontario.
 
Based on available resources, the Fund will support activities in such areas as:
  • Increasing public interest in lawn bowls
  • Marketing, member recruitment and member retention at the club level
  • Raising the skill levels of lawn bowlers (e.g. player development camps)
  • Development of programs for youth and continuing growth of existing programs for junior bowlers
  • Development of bowls programs for persons with disabilities
  • Technical support for improvements in the maintenance and development of greens
 
The Fund does not directly provide facilities or equipment to individuals, clubs or organizations.
 
Contributions will be used:
  • to organize seminars, workshops and development camps for players, coaches and umpires
  • to improve the capacity of clubs to recruit and retain members, develop new programs and sustain existing ones
  • to support clubs in efforts to establish and/or to maintain greens that, at the least, meet minimum standards in Ontario
  • to promote greater participation in championships at the District level (leading to Provincial championships and possible participation in National championships)
  • to support new initiatives – e.g. intra-provincial match-play events – that contribute to player development and higher skill levels among bowlers
 
How To Contribute
  • Personal or business cheques, travellers cheques and bank drafts are all acceptable.
  • In addition to direct gifts, the programs benefiting from the Memorial Fund can be supported through instructions to an estate executor to remit contributions to the OLBA Memorial Fund or by a direct bequest in a will.
