Afri Readymix tees off for Môrester Kids
Rustenburg/ Mooinooi – The greens of Mooinooi Golf Club buzzed with laughter, generosity and community spirit on Thursday, 9 October 2025, as Afri Readymix hosted its annual Golf Day in support of Môrester Child and Youth Care Centre (Môrester Kinderhuis) in Rustenburg.
What began as a simple day of golf turned into a powerful act of kindness — raising R370,000 in pledges for the centre that currently provides care for 28 children.
“What an incredible day on the course!” said Afri Readymix director, Gerhard Maree. “The Afri Readymix Golf Day was more than just a round of golf — it was a day filled with community spirit, generosity, and hope. We’re truly grateful to everyone who participated, sponsored, and contributed to making a difference in the lives of the children at Môrester. Together, we’re building more than concretely; we’re building brighter futures.”
Môrester Child and Youth Care Centre director, Helen Lotz, expressed heartfelt gratitude to Afri Readymix and all who joined the cause. “The golf day was a massive success,” she said. “Gerhard and Afri Readymix make this possible for us every year, and we are so thankful. Gerhard has been part of the Môrester family for a long time — he’s always there when times are tough. Thanks to everyone who came out, played, socialised, and helped ensure our children’s needs will be met for the months ahead.” Even participants who travelled from outside Rustenburg were touched by the event’s purpose. Chryso South Africa Construction Chemicals sales representative, Mwee Cloete, said, “Môrester is an incredible organisation — their commitment to community support and the way they bring people together through events like this is truly inspiring.”
The golf day once again proved that when local businesses and residents come together, they build more than concrete — they build community.
