Driving for the green: Hong Kong Golf Club holds Cup of Kindness game in support of Operation Santa Claus
- Hong Kong Golf Club partners with Operation Santa Claus to hold two sporting events to help raise money for local charitable projects
- ‘The collaboration with OSC is a great way to raise awareness about the sport as well as the community,’ club captain Andy Kwok says
Members of the Hong Kong Golf Club reunited with fans for two signature events on the putting green, all in the name of charity.
After a nearly four-year hiatus brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic, the club partnered with the Asian Tour’s International Series and annual fundraising drive Operation Santa Claus to bring back the highly anticipated Hong Kong Open.
“The collaboration with OSC is a great way to raise awareness about the sport, as well as the community,” club captain Andy Kwok Wing-leung said. “It also brings many of our members together as our common cause to help others further unites us.”
OSC is a joint fundraising effort by the South China Morning Post and public broadcaster RTHK. Since it was established in 1988, the drive has raised HK$369 million in support of 338 charitable projects across Hong Kong.
