Blooms The Chemist has raised more than $60,000 for Make-A-Wish Australia with its seventh annual Charity Golf Day.
The Charity Golf Day at the Strathfield Golf Club brought together more than 125 sponsors, ambassadors and Make-A-Wish representatives.
Blooms The Chemist CEO Emmanuel Vavoulas said the golf day is “a fantastic way to support such a special cause in our hearts”.
“As a network of pharmacists who are passionate about giving back to the community, we deeply value our longstanding partnership with Make-Wish Australia and the positive impact that we contribute to helping grant the wishes of sick children,” Vavoulas said.
“The Charity Golf Day is amongst many fundraising activities, including bake sales, sausage sizzles and raffles, held by the Blooms The Chemist Support Office and network of more than a hundred community pharmacies to help raise funds for this important cause.”
Make-A-Wish Australia CEO Sally Bateman said there are more than 900 kids on a wish journey.
“Vital funds raised during the Golf Day will go towards making more wishes possible, bringing hope and joy to sick kids and their families around the country,” Bateman said.
Recently, the Blooms The Chemist network and wider community also celebrated hitting a major donation milestone of over $2m to the charity.
