Philippines Charity Golf Day result

On Friday, 17 January 2014, the Nudgee Golf Club held a charity golf day to raise valuable funds to go toward children that have been recently affected by Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. The golf event held was a 4 person ambrose event and the day was extremely well supported by local businesses, club supporters and Nudgee Golf Club members. Nudgee Golf Club General Manager, Aaron Muirhead said that “These type of events have proven very successful in the past and when I heard of the tragedy that occurred in the Philippines late last year, I wanted to do something to raise funds for the kids that had been affected, similar to what we did for the Haiti Earthquake affected kids in 2010”. “I would like to thank all the sponsors, supporters and participants on the day for contributing to this worthy cause”.

The charity day raised a total just under $6000 at the conclusion of the event, but the club has put in the difference to make the total and even $6000 to go toward the ‘Save the Children’ fund. “We certainly hope that the money gets to the Philippines and is used in an appropriate way to assist the kids impacted by this tragedy”.
