Following the fourth Annual Macau Business Charity Golf Tournament, a cheque presentation luncheon took place last month at Aurora restaurant, in Altira.

The Cradle of Hope Association and Caritas’ Lar de Nossa Senhora da Penha, two institutions that care for babies and children who have been abandoned, neglected or are at risk from physical or psychological abuse, were benefited.

Team Wynn A, made up by Dave Williamson, Nathan Fisher and Ryan Beauregard, was the net score tournament winner. As such, they had the right to nominate a charity to forward their winnings – HK$100,000 – to. They chose the Cradle of Hope Association.

Meanwhile, the gross score tournament winners were Gunther Hatt, Cliff Chan and Ben Toh, from Sands I team. They nominated Caritas’ Lar de Nossa Senhora da Penha to forward their HK$100,000 winnings.

Long-term patron Melco Crown Entertainment continued its support as an event partner of the Macau Business Charity Golf Tournament, sponsoring the cheque presentation luncheon.

A record number of 30 three-member teams representing the cream of Macau’s socially responsible corporate citizens took part in the two-day tournament, held in October. Player count wise, the event registered a growth of around 250 percent.
