Raising money, having fun and chasing little white balls all over the place enabled Havilah Designer Jewellers to directly raise R2 590.00 towards the Wings and Wishes charity at their golf day on Friday 17 February.
The event was hosted by St Francis Links Golf Course. Local celebrities Dave Callaghan and Vlam Michau came out to play and show their support.
Wings and wishes is a charity started by Coca Cola, which is dedicated to transporting critically ill children to receive life saving medical treatment.
The Fifth Tee was sponsored by Havilah, where players enjoyed a shooter before teeing off. Havilah also sponsored a stunning Blue Topaz Silver earring and pendant set and two Pandora bracelets, each with a charm. These prizes were raffled off, raising a total of R2 590 for the Wings Wishes charity. The winners of the day walked off with two Silver golf tee and marker sets from Havilah.
Congratulations to Mark Phillips, who won the earring and pendant set and Messers Koekemoer and Geldenhys who each walked away with a Pandora bracelet.
The winners of the day were Messers G. Smith and G. Oosthuizen of Nampak/Megapak and female golfer, Natasha Paxton of Dataflo, for hitting the longest drive.
All in all it was a wonderful day, slightly windy but golfers and sponsors enjoyed both the golf and the opportunity to support such a worthy cause.
