Maritime Golf Event raises over EUR 10,000 for Dutch Cancer-Free Children Foundation
On Thursday 17 September, circa 100 international maritime professionals took part in this annual golf event. The event, which was organised by the Dutch maritime publishing house Yellow & Finch Publishers, was held at the Goese Golf in Goes, the Netherlands, and marked its fifth consecutive year running. It aims – among other things – a raising as much funds as possible for KiKa, the Dutch foundation fighting the battle against cancer with children.
Although the weather was not perfect, the participants were in high spirits and thoroughly enjoyed the event. The full day of activities was a combination of socialising and networking with participants taking part in a golf tournament and a golf clinic for the less-experienced golfers. During dinner Yellow & Finch Publishers CEO Charles van den Oosterkamp handed a cheque with a value of EUR 10.500 to KiKa representative Ms Janny de Witte. “We are delighted to be able to collect such a large sum for such a good cause,” commented Mr Van den Oosterkamp, while Ms De Witte thanked all the participants for their donations.
Yellow & Finch Publishers will continue to fund charitable institutions by organising another golf event next year. For more information about the 2016 Yellow & Finch Maritime Golf Event and your early registration, please contact the publishing house.
