A day in the sun raised another $370,000 for a good cause.

The Monaco Group held its 27th edition of the Monaco Group Classic golf tournament with the money raised going to the group’s foundation, which distributes the funds to various community and health research groups.

Golfers took to the Blainvillier Golf Club in Blainville, Que. And more than 200 guests gathered for dinner. The foundation has raised more than $2 million over the past 26 years, specifically supporting the Thoracic Research Foundation of Montreal, the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital and the Montreal Heart Institute.
