Hi Members
We are aware some members do not have social media. Below is the link and bio for the fundraiser.
GISBORNE GOLF CLUB FIRE RECOVERY APPEAL, SUPPORTED BY THE AUSTRALIAN SPORTS FOUNDATION.
Please follow the below link. Be aware that this is the only fundraiser link, all other sites are false.
We know that Gisborne Golf Club is a place that is valued and loved by so many in Gisborne, surrounding towns and across Victoria.
We know that so many of you have made wonderful memories here – playing a round of golf, enjoying a meal, spotting kangaroos and having a crack at winning trivia. We are proudly the home of the Gisborne RSL Sub-Branch. We have hosted hundreds of events throughout our history including weddings, funerals and other celebrations, community and sporting club events, charity and fundraising events and so much more.
We love that the whole community is part of the place.
From the moment we learned the news of the fire, the staff and Committee have been working around the clock to get our club back on its feet. We are supporting our staff, cleaning up and making the site safe, and planning for what’s next. We welcomed players back onto the golf course a little over 24 hours after the fire. The Clubhouse is going to take a little longer.
We know that it is going to take funds and time to rebuild the club into a facility for the whole community. It’s a big project.
We have started this fundraising page as a way of signalling our intention to rebuild and come back stronger and better than before. We want the whole community to be part of this process and we would be so grateful if you would consider making a contribution to support the club as we navigate a way forward.
The Gisborne Golf Club is not for profit and donations made via the Australian Sports Foundation platform are tax deductible.
Thank you.
