The annual mayoral charity golf day in Plettenberg Bay has become a signature event supported by Garden Route businesses, organisations, community leaders and residents.
Hosted by the town’s first female mayor, Jesicca Kamkam, in partnership with Plett Tourism, 2025’s event will take place on February 28 at the Plettenberg Bay Country Club.
The popular fundraising gold day will be preceded by a gala dinner the night before at the Sky Villa Boutique Hotel.
Kamkam said the event was more than just a day of golf, and severed as a pivotal fundraising opportunity aimed at supporting initiatives uplifting the local community.
“The funds raised will go towards providing essential resources for community projects that truly make a positive difference in people’s lives.
“Food security initiatives will also be a priority, with 62% of proceeds provided to the population living under the breadline,” she said.
This will be the third mayoral charity golf day hosted in Bitou Municipality.
The first event, hosted in 2022, raised about R100,000, and the second in 2023 brought in about R80,000 — all for a good cause.
Several sponsorship options will be available for the day, ranging from R5,000 to tens of thousands of rand, affording businesses advertising and other perks.
