Boost for Darren Clark Foundation & Links Golfing Society

SALE OF RYDER CUP PROGRAMMES
RAISES BIG SUM FOR CHARITIES

Sales of the official Ryder Cup programme at The K Club last month have resulted in the significant sum of 61,756 Euros being raised for two charitable causes – the Darren Clarke Foundation and the Dublin-based Links Golfing Society.
Ryder Cup Europe llp donated one Euro of the 10 Euros cover price of the programme to each charity and with sales totalling 30,878 from Europe’s record-equalling 18 ½ - 9 ½ victory over the United States, the two charities will each benefit by 30,878 Euros.
The money to the Darren Clarke Foundation will help breast cancer awareness and research, while the Links Golfing Society, celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, will assist the purchase of minibuses for special causes across the length and breath of Ireland.
