Elders - Heart Foundation Charity Golf Day

Elders - Heart Foundation Charity Golf Day

Join us for a fun filled day at the Barmera Golf Course raising money for the Heart Foundation on Sunday the 5th of March. 

Why we chose to raise money for the heart foundation:

Hi, my name is Ally and I am the newest member to the Elders Rural Team in Barmera.

In November 2021, at age 31, I was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm. This was an incidental find after completing some diagnostic tests. Already having passed surgical margins, it was only 10 day between diagnosis and having open heart surgery. If we had not stumbled across this finding, there was an incredibly high chance that it would have been life threatening and potentially fatal. 

I am incredibly grateful to be able to run this event and raise awareness that heart problems affect people of all ages and are often quite sudden, unexpected and life changing.    

Heart disease remains Australia’s biggest killer, claiming 48 lives every day. Your donation will help the Heart Foundation to transform Australia’s heart health by:

• funding life-changing heart research

• supporting health professionals working to prevent, diagnose and treat heart disease

• providing heart-healthy programs and resources for everyday Australians.

Please make a donation today, click the donate button. Every donation, big or small will help us get closer to my goal. All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you’ll get a receipt by email as soon as you make your donation.

Thank you for your support.
