Ron Ghitter TENNIS FUND
About The Friends of Ron Ghitter Fund
Meet Ron Ghitter, our founder and past-chair of the OSTEN & VICTOR Alberta Tennis Centre and the driving force behind the Friends of Ron Ghitter Fund. With an unbridled passion for tennis and a steadfast commitment to its expansion, Ron Ghitter invests his time, energy, and resources to elevate the sport to unprecedented heights in Alberta.
The Friends of Ron Ghitter Tennis Fund is a catalyst for change. Established to empower underserved children in discovering and participating in tennis. This initiative goes beyond traditional boundaries by providing financial support and ensuring that qualified participants and their families receive the assistance they need. We offer two distinct funding programs:
Ron & Myrna Ghitter Community Fund
This fund is a beacon of diversity, inclusion, and support for under-resourced youth. Operating within local communities as part of the Friends of Ron Ghitter Fund for Kids, it opens doors to the world of tennis for everyone.
Ron Ghitter Excellence Fund
For junior players aged 8 – 17 showing national/international potential, the Ron Ghitter Excellence Fund is a game-changer. It offsets training and travel expenses, propelling budding athletes towards success at the OSTEN & VICTOR Alberta Tennis Centre.
Vision
Aim to ensure that every young tennis player in Calgary has the means to pursue and achieve their dreams in the sport.
Mission
To enhance the lives of young Calgarians through the transformative power of tennis.
Goal
Our overarching goal is simple yet profound – to provide every young Calgarian, regardless of their socioeconomic background, with the opportunity to play tennis.
