“This year’s Golf Day exceeded all expectations. The tee box sponsors made it exciting and fun, and the generosity from our supporters made this our biggest event to date,” said Martin Bester. “After raising R4 million last year, I wasn’t sure we’d top it, but our listeners, sponsors, and new friends helped us go above and beyond. The incredible support from the Jacaranda FM family means we’re now in an even better position to change lives. I’m truly proud to have been part of such an amazing day.”
Jacaranda FM’s Managing Director, Deirdre King, echoed the sentiment, saying, “We are overwhelmed by the generosity and commitment shown by everyone involved.
