Over 150 keen golfers took part in this annual charity tournament organized to raise funds for the Human Resources Foundation which helps children from some of the poorest families in Bangkok. LawtonAsia sponsored one of the holes and also helped to raise money through a ‘Guess the weight of the staff” competition. The fun day culminated in a dinner and charity auction. With some amazing items up for auction – including a Manchester United football shirt signed by the players – there was no shortage of bidders and the total amount raised was well in excess of a million baht. All the proceeds were donated to Father Joe’s Foundation to fund programs that include shelters for abandoned children, pre-schools for children of slum-dwellers, and the Kingdom’s only legal aid centre dedicated to poor children.
