and support of Golf Canada Member Facilities across the country.

Golf Canada and Humi announced a multi-year integrated partnership that will see Humi become the official payroll, human resources, and benefits partner of Golf Canada.

The partnership extends across Golf Canada’s National Open Championships – the RBC Canadian Open and the CPKC Women’s Open. In addition, Humi will become the inaugural Presenting Partner of Golf Canada’s National Facility Awards for Junior Golf.

“Golf Canada is proud to announce this multifaceted partnership with Humi, aimed at elevating numerous initiatives to foster inclusive and diverse opportunities throughout the golf season,” said Laurence Applebaum, CEO, Golf Canada. “We have integrated the Humi platform into our People and Culture operation and look forward to their enhanced impact on Canadian golf.”

Humi will also become the presenting partner of the Lodge Hospitality Suites at both the RBC Canadian Open and CPKC Women’s Open. In this capacity, Humi will elevate the experience for all corporate hospitality guests within these exclusive spaces.

Humi’s partnership position will extend to support the CPKC Women’s Leadership Summit, an annual summit during the CPKC Women’s Open that engages influential leaders from both the business and sports world. The CPKC Women’s Leadership Summit embodies Humi’s dedication to fostering inclusivity and empowerment, by featuring impactful speakers with diverse perspectives on topics such as diversity of thought and women in leadership positions.

“Humi is committed to supporting Canadian businesses, which is why we’re thrilled to partner with Golf Canada – a leading Canadian organization and valued client. They do amazing work to support the spirit of golf for all Canadians, as well as a network of golf courses across the country, which serve as the bedrock of the sport. We look forward to working together with Golf Canada to support hard working Canadians from coast to coast,” said Kevin Kliman, CEO of Humi.

Founded in 2016, Humi launched as a simple cloud-based web app that stored employee data. Today, Humi has become the best all-in-one people operations software solution for Canadian businesses. Creating safe and inclusive environments that embrace diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and opinions remains a core value at Humi. As a part of this commitment, Humi’s partnership will focus on enhancing experiences at Golf Canada’s events that foster inclusive experiences and environments for all.

Through their expertise in people operations solutions, Humi will provide additional support to Golf Canada member golf clubs and facilities via best-practice resources and relevant industry case studies. In addition, their support will extend into the Golf Canada Facility Awards for Junior Golf presented by Humi, with a donation of $1,000 to each winning facility to be invested back into junior golf initiatives.
