Golfers tee off for HACT’s gogos
The annual golf day is a fundraising activity for sewing and business courses for grannies from the Valley of 1000 Hills.
THE sixth annual Goals for Gogos took place at Kloof Country Club on Friday, April 21. The event was hosted by the Round Tables of Kloof 190 and Westville 189, and a field of 88 golfers took part in the day.
While the day dawned cool and windy, the weather played its part and warmed up a bit before the teams teed off. A phenomenal day was had by all, with corporate sponsors coming on board to ensure that many of the holes had fun activities and good vibes.

“The evening was capped off with an auction of two holiday prizes – many thanks to Ian Wyles for coming through and conducting the proceedings. These prizes were kindly sponsored by Pierre le Roux from Mozambique Magazine,” said Matthew Hayes, Westville 189 chairman.
The golf day is a fundraising activity for sewing and business courses for ladies from the Valley of 1000 Hills, whereby funds raised are used to source and acquire sewing machines, and the women are taught how to manufacture their own clothing using materials from Hillcrest Aids Centre Trust.
“The ladies then take part in a business course which enables them to start their own small-scale businesses within their communities and generate an income for their families.”
