We are delighted to share that our 1st Beacon School Golf Cup: Par for a Purpose was a swinging success – thanks to the enthusiastic support of our incredible community!

Other prizes included golf balls and simulators, athletic bags and accessories, spa treats, overnight accommodations, and several restaurant GCs – some of which were from one of our Beacon parents, renowned Chef Josh Boutwood of Helm. We thank the many individuals and corporations that supported Par for a Purpose:

We also want to acknowledge the participation of students Hannah Evangelista, Elle Bitong, and Amalia Aboitiz, who volunteered to be our hosts for the program. They performed like pros and livened up our raffle draw and awarding with their youthful energy and joy.
Par for a Purpose showed once again the strength and impact of the Beacon community spirit. Besides filling the day with great swings, friendly competition, and unforgettable moments with family and friends, the event raised funds to help us build beyond Grade 8 in Beacon’s Makati campus. The long-term promise of initiatives like Par for a Purpose is in making the unique Beacon education accessible to more learners in the future. We still have quite a way to go, but our Beacon community encourages and inspires us to keep moving forward.
Thank you and see you at the next Beacon Golf Cup!
