The Rotary Club of Kandy is set to host the much-anticipated RCK Charity Golf Classic today at the picturesque Victoria Golf Resort (VGR).
Organised as a significant fundraiser for the end polio campaign of Rotary International, the RCK Charity Golf Classic has a unique twist – all proceeds will be matched twofold by the Bill Gates Foundation. This collaboration ensures a substantial impact in the supply of free polio vaccines worldwide, underlining the commitment of both Rotary International and the Bill Gates Foundation to eliminating this debilitating disease.
The RCK Charity Golf Classic wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of its sponsors. Epic Lanka, Sun Online, Star Logistics, Nithyakalyani Jewellers, Sifani Jewellers, Print Wide Enterprises, Fukada Environmental Solutions, and Galaboda Water who have stepped up to the tee, demonstrating their commitment to making a difference in global health.
The event has also garnered widespread community support, with over 60 golfers registered to participate. Each swing on the golf course is a symbolic gesture towards a polio-free world, and the enthusiasm shown by these golfers echoes the shared commitment to this noble cause. – (SJ)
