"Someone once stated that 'in golf, as in life, it is the follow-through that makes the difference'. This saying rings true for the Cotlands '#All4You' Charity Golf Day and we are thankful for the support from over 120 golfers and 19 gifts, prizes and hole sponsors," says Cotlands.
"Through their participation, we were able to raise funds for our playgroup and toy library programmes," adds Cotlands.
Cotlands says, "The period from birth to six years of age is the most important stage of brain development (90% of brain development). These years represent a crucial window of opportunity for setting a strong educational foundation. Without this early foundation, most children tend to struggle later on."
"We want more commitment from both public and private entities to sponsor ECD projects that yield positive impacts on our society as a whole, reducing poverty and unemployment and promoting better economic growth for the future," the brand adds.
"We all have an interest in fixing the education crisis that our country faces. We all are vested in how our future generations will perform, thrive and survive," says Cotlands.
Dr Monica Stach, CEO of Cotlands, concludes, "The Cotlands Golf Day is a highlight on our calendar. We are excited by how many individuals support our cause and want to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable children. We are thrilled by the number of new golfers and corporate teams that have supported our golf day."
Cotlands has encouraged those who would like to become a headline sponsor or sponsor one of the holes to contact
