Golf for an inspiring cause

Twenty fourballs enjoyed an entertaining day of golf on 16 October at the Kloof Country Club to support Focus on iThemba. The iThemba team were grateful for the overwhelming support and the generosity of sponsors. The golfers were treated to amazing prizes including the sought after raffle prize won by Rob Taylor, of a framed Springbok Rugby Jersey signed by the Springbok team who won the 2009 Springbok, British Lions Series.


Fortunately the skies were clear for most of the day, however even the downpour later in the afternoon didn't succeed in dampening the atmosphere.

Congratulations to the winning fourball - Geoff Evernett, Graeme Hornby, Richie Walsh, and Dave Trotter. The fourball in second place were Mark Wright, Wade Kedachi, Mark Elsworth and Craig Clark. Graeme Hornby achieved 'closest to the pin' and Bruce Throssel won the straightest drive prize which was a two night stay for two at the beautiful Champagne Castle Hotel.

"We sincerely thank all those involved in this event which raised a substantial amount of money for iThemba," said Nadine Wright, Donor Relations Manager. "At iThemba children are given the highest priority. Parentless vulnerable children are welcomed into loving families in cluster foster care homes. Five homes have opened their doors and there are plans to ultimately open 15 more homes," she said. "The campus based in Hillcrest has also opened a school, the iThemba Academy, where children are offered quality education. It is through support from the community demonstrated through this event that we can continue offering hope to our future leaders."
