The District Grand Lodge of Cyprus Freemasons held their annual Charity Golf Day earlier this year at the prestigious Aphrodite Hills Golf Club in Paphos. It drew a record number of participants from Cyprus and beyond, competing for the Peter Lowndes Open Challenge Cup – a mixed individual format competition.
The winner of the Cup was Andy Antoni. The cup is named after Past Pro Grand Master of UGLE Peter Lowndes, who flew in for this special occasion. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the tournament, which launched in 2015 with the unwavering support of all Lodges under the District Grand Lodge of Cyprus.
This year’s recipient charity is the Karaiskakio Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to creating a world without leukaemia through its volunteer Bone Marrow Donor Registry. Almost £1,600 was raised on the day – a remarkable achievement. The District Grand Lodge of Cyprus has pledged £62,000 towards this cause, specifically for the purchase of an automated cell separating medical instrument. Peter expressed his appreciation for everyone's generosity.
