The Balaia Bowls Club, based at Balaia Golf Village in Albufeira, recently organised a supportive tournament in memorial of ex captain of the club, Mr. Tom Sanderson, with all funds raised kindly being donated to the Humanitarian Association of Volunteer Firefighters of Albufeira (AHBVA).
The raised amount, an impressive €500, was used to purchase 82 pairs of boots for the Firefighters.
The presentation was made at Balaia Golf Village by several members of Balaia Bowls Club to the Commander of Albufeira Fire Department, Mr. António Coelho, and the Chairman of the Directorate of AHBVA, Dr. José Carlos Martins Rolo, where they took the opportunity to speak a few words of acknowledgment and appreciation for the work done by firefighters.
These initiatives and their results represent an important contribution to maintaining the operational activities of the fire department.
