Supporting Local Communities
At Targa Newfoundland, we believe in giving back to the communities that make our event possible. Each year, we partner with local organizations to support the people and places that make this province so special.
From St. John’s to Twillingate, from Gander to Bonavista, we work with community groups and businesses to promote economic growth and celebrate the unique culture of Newfoundland. Through partnerships with local charities, we help to raise funds for important causes, including healthcare, education, and environmental conservation.
But the benefits of Targa Newfoundland go beyond just charitable giving. Our event brings people from around the world to the province, boosting tourism and promoting local businesses. Our competitors and spectators alike stay in local hotels, eat at local restaurants, and shop at local stores, supporting the local economy and creating jobs.
We’re proud to be a part of the fabric of Newfoundland and Labrador, and we’re committed to doing our part to ensure that the communities we touch thrive. From supporting local festivals and events to providing scholarships to local students, Targa Newfoundland is dedicated to making a positive impact on the province we call home.
The event organizers provide lunch and the communities we race through go all out to prepare these lunches.
