In 2008 the Intercontinental Hotel Group Beijing raised over RMB 300,000 for their chosen charity, easily surpassing their 2007 total when they were presented with an IHG in-house award for best charity fundraiser of the year. 

The 2009 event when one better yet again when IHG changed courses and moved to the Pearl Orient Golf Club.  Despite a tumultuous economic climate, the event once again was able to raise a significant sum for their pet charity, Project Hope.
