2015 proved to be a successful fund raising year for Derek Sells and the members of Boavista Golf and Spa Resort. The Captain’s Charity Day, held on 13th June, attracted 58 players and together with various events staged throughout the year, the sum of €11322.40€ was raised – an impressive achievement.
During the course of the year, the club also raised additional funds through organising events such as quiz nights, race nights and bingo evenings.
Those golfers unlucky enough to hit a ball into the lake on the 17th fairway also helped boost the funds by placing a few coins in the charity box.
The “Palvista Trophy” (Palmares and Boavista Golf Clubs) also raised in excess of €1,600. The total donation to NECI (Núcleo Especializado para o Cidadão Incluso) will be €13,500.
