A Record-Breaking Year of Charity Fundraising - Round Up
Our record-breaking charity fundraising year has come to an end, and we're delighted to reveal that with your help, we have raised £43,060 combined for the Emma Cameron Foundation and Glasgow Care Foundation!
We tee'd off our year of fundraising with our 13th Annual Charity Golf Day, which was held at The Duke's Course, St Andrews. Unfortunately no one was lucky enough to achieve a hole-in-one on the day and win themselves a brand new car or cash prize, however the day was a success as the raffle, penalty bunkers, mystery fourballs and entry fees helped us to raise over £10,000!
McCrea Managing Director Douglas McCrea managed to only get lost for 7km of his 14th Annual Charity Walk in August, where he took on the Kintyre Way; a 7-day, 169km trek. With your incredibly generous donations, Douglas was able to raise over £12,000 across the challenge!
After a three-year hiatus, we were delighted to host our Charity Dinner and Wine-Tasting evening at Glaschu. The evening consisted of a delicious three-course meal with matching wines, a brilliant performance by Britain's Got Talent semi-finalist magician Kevin Quantum, and a charity raffle and auction with some great prizes, all which raised £9,296.
Our year of fundraising reached its finish line at our 12th Annual Charity Race Night in February, where a very busy Hillhead Sports Club helped us to raise £8,939. There were many other successes on the night, as the winners of our Auction Race walked away with £1,875!
A massive thank you to everyone who has supported our fundraising efforts over the last 12 months - whether that was by attending our charity events, providing prizes for our raffles, donating to our Just Giving pages or simply interacting with our promotional content - we couldn't have done it without you.
We'd also like to thank the Emma Cameron Foundation and Glasgow Care Foundation for the brilliant work that they do and for being a pleasure to partner with over the last 12 months, especially with their assistance at our recent fundraising events.
Next up is revealing our two new charity partners for the 2024/25 fundraising year; keep an eye out on our website and social media's where all will be revealed soon...
