A Day of Laughter and Giving: Team APG Workforce at Turosi Giving Golf Day
Last Wednesday, the team at APG Workforce headed to Sandhurst Golf Club in Melbourne for the Turosi Giving Golf Day. While victory might have escaped Team APG this year, their efforts contributed to a heartwarming cause - raising $20,000 for the Clown Doctors, a division of the Humour Foundation. Despite the competitive edge, the day was filled with honest tests of golf, countless laughs, and the joy of giving back.
- Who is Turosi
At the heart of the event stands Turosi, a privately owned food manufacturer and supplier specialising in fresh poultry and prepared food solutions. Born from the union of two family companies, Turosi upholds a shared commitment to producing top-quality food products while delivering exemplary customer service.
- Turosi Giving: Power in Unity
The Turosi Giving initiative is a testament to the belief that there is power in numbers. Founded in 2011, this charity organisation, championed by Turosi employees, works towards a common goal of making a significant difference through collective contributions. The focus is on relieving the burden of sickness, poverty, disability, and misfortune, with a special emphasis on supporting children and their families.
- Clown Doctors: Healing Through Laughter
At the heart of The Humour Foundation's compassionate mission lies the Clown Doctors™ program, a beacon of joy and healing. Their purpose is clear: to enhance wellbeing, lift spirits, and improve health through the transformative power of joyful humour, insightful connection, and creative play.
The Clown Doctors™ serve as the foundation's flagship initiative, dedicated to delivering the invaluable benefits of laughter precisely where it is least expected yet most needed. Containing highly skilled teams, these medical jesters work hand in hand with healthcare professionals, forming partnerships aimed at alleviating the stress and social isolation that often accompanies the challenging environment of hospitals. In doing so, they contribute to improved outcomes, turning moments of discomfort into opportunities for smiles and healing in what can be an otherwise stressful and unfamiliar setting.
The Turosi Giving Golf Day wasn't just a day on the greens; it was a day of laughter, camaraderie, and making a difference in the lives of those in need. Team APG's participation, coupled with the generosity of Turosi and the Humour Foundation, underscores the profound impact that a community coming together can have. As they say in golf, it's not always about the score; sometimes, it's about the moments, the joy, and the shared commitment to making the world a better place.
