Waikato/Coromandel raise $3,000 for IDFNZ
WAIKATO
On Friday 10th December, New Zealand Certified Builders (NZCB) Waikato/Coromandel held their annual Charity Golf Day at the Ngaruawahia Golf Club. The golf day was initially supposed to take place in October but due to COVID-19 lockdowns and alert level restrictions it was postponed. After much anticipation, it was fantastic to see our teams were taking a break from their busy schedules. With many entertaining and diverse challenges throughout the course – a great day was had by all.
Thanks to our generous donors, there were some fantastic spot prizes on offer, and all teams received a bag full of goodies. This year our chosen charity was the Immune Deficiencies Foundation of New Zealand (IDFNZ). IDFNZ support families with immune deficiencies and liver issues. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and members we were able to raise $3,000 for the foundation. A big thanks to our hole sponsors; Franklin Plumbing and Builders Supplies, Avant Aluminium, PlaceMakers Clarence Street, Bunnings, AEG, EnergySmart, Carpet Mill, Winstone Wallboards, Trowel Trades and Milwaukee Tools and our charity sponsors; Hampton Downs Raceway, Milwaukee Tools, Ngaruawahia Golf Club, Noel Leeming and Northern Districts Cricket! This was the last event that Merynn Connors – the NZCB Coordinator for Waikato – was overseeing, after three years in this position. On behalf of the NZCB Waikato Committee and members, we would like to extend thanks to Merynn for
