Fundraising for South African communities 

 

The South Africa Charity Golf Day

As a company with a proud South African heritage Miller Brands is pleased to have a historic relationship as one of the main sponsors of the annual South Africa Charity Golf Day – the biggest event of its kind in Europe with the former President of South Africa and the joint winner with Nelson Mandela of the Nobel Peace Prize, FW de Klerk as its patron. The day aims to raise as much money as possible for a range of children’s charities in South Africa.

The charities benifiting from the day are The Nelson Mandela Children's Fund, The FW de Klerk foundation, Starfish, and Ma Africa Tikkun. These charities help children whose lives have been affected by AIDS through education and other initiatives.

Miller Brands supports this prestigious event through volunteers providing premium refreshments and also by donating a prize for the charity auction. Jonathan Bennett, Head of Corporate Affairs said:

“We are delighted to help support such a prestigious event and one that is raising money for extremely worthy causes".
