Turn n Tender go all out for charities
St Mary’s Children’s Home was one of the charities which benefited from a fundraising golf day held at the Royal Johannesburg and Kensington Golf Club on Monday November 9.
LINKSFIELD – Branches of Turn ‘n Tender throughout Johannesburg joined hands to raise money for five charities, with Bassonia’s Turn ‘n Tender, situated in Comaro View Shopping Centre, supporting St Mary’s Children’s Home.
Golfers enjoyed the day at one of the most esteemed golf clubs in South Africa and played in temperatures which exceeded 35c.
The turn-out was tremendous and two of the four Aaron brothers, Mervyn and Brian, who founded Turn ‘n Tender on April 1, 1977 were also at the Golf Day.
The dinner and prize giving were accompanied by an auction, with the proceeds going towards the chosen charities. One of the four-ball teams who won prizes, was MFC (Motor Finance Corporate Company) from Nedbank, who regularly support St Mary’s.
“Heartfelt thanks to everyone who assisted with the organisation and those who supported the golf day,” said Sonja Harmse (director of St Mary’s Children’s Home).
