Green Acres and Kew Golf Clubs joined together playing the composite course to raise funds for Fareshare charity.
Over the years, both clubs have raised well over $1ml dollars to help various charities in their fundraising efforts. This year, we joined forces to provide valuable funds to aid Fareshare and give members the opportunity to play the composite course as an alternative to normal 18 hole golf at each club.
This will become an annual event alternating the clubs chosen charity to aid raising much needed funds for those less fortunate.
FareShare is a charity which has been cooking free, nutritious meals for people doing it tough since 2001.
We believe that every Australian deserves a nutritious meal, regardless of their circumstances or location.
FareShare operates Australia’s largest non-profit kitchens in Melbourne and Brisbane where chefs and volunteers work hand in hand to cook the best possible meal for every person in need.
Each year FareShare transforms rescued, donated and our homegrown food into millions of delicious, healthy meals that feed dignity and wellbeing for Australians experiencing hardship. A homestyle meal shows that somebody cares and has an immediate impact.
Our healthy meals are given away free to frontline charities such as soup vans, homeless shelters, women’s refuges, First Nations organisations and groups providing disaster relief.
The need for meal relief has never been higher with the soaring cost of living, frequent natural disasters and the lingering effects of the pandemic hurting millions of Australians.
As a charity, we rely on the generosity of philanthropic foundations, businesses and individual donors.
When you support FareShare, you are not just feeding someone in need. You are giving them a ready-to-eat meal which takes the worry out of going hungry and the stress out of cooking. You are making them feel better.
