* South African Tourism Golf Day - September 2007 (The Netherlands)

On the 20th September 2007, South African Tourism in the Netherlands arranged a golf day and kindly invited the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre to participate.

Various items from the Centre (including a painting and clothing) were silently auctioned to participants at the event. Funds raised went towards adopting a cheetah at the Centre.

The HESC also donated a prize of a one-week conservation course to a lucky winner who would in the process gain valuable knowledge of and experience in nature conservation.

SAT raised a staggering ZAR 74,400.00 for the HESC through this initiative. The cheque was handed over on the 6th March 2008, when a delegation of Dutch corporates visited South Africa with South African Tourism.
