The annual Shoprite Checkers OFM Chip 4 Charity returns in 2024, for a 20th year, bringing together golf enthusiasts in Orkney. All proceeds will go towards local charities and beneficiaries. There are Shoprite Checkers vouchers worth R20 000 up for grabs .

• 25 July 2024: Orkney Golf Club, Orkney (Beneficiaries: Voetlig Familiekerk & Dominique Prinsloo)

For 13 years, Voetlig has tirelessly worked to alleviate poverty in Orkney, focusing on the Afrikaans community. They provide essential food, daycare, and transport for needy families, especially those from Orkney Vaal, Blakeweg, and Parksig. Help them secure a permanent home and support vital programs, including our exciting Project Nemo, which aims to take 13 disadvantaged children to see the ocean for the first time. 

Dominique Prinsloo, an 11-year-old girl, was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer in November 2023. Despite receiving a much-needed oxygen machine from a charity golf event, her medical expenses remain overwhelming. After suffering a stroke in May 2024, Dominique is now paralyzed. Your support can help ease the financial burden on her family and improve Dominique's quality of life during these challenging times.

The Good Morning Breakfast Show will broadcast live from 06:00 to 09:00, adding excitement to the days’ activities.
