Tonight was this dinner at the Orchid Country Club. This is an annual event, organized by the NWCDC, to raise funds for Club100 and this year, more than $750,000 was raised through this golf event to help needy residents in the NW district. This is in addition to the 750 plus members who contribute a monthly sum of at least $100 a month, some of whom have been contributing since 2008, the year this initiative started.
When this event first started many years ago, the fundraising target used to be $250,000. Last year we hit $600,000, which I already thought was a big wow but now even that amount has been surpassed.
It is good to see so many people opening up their wallets for worthwhile causes in this country.
