I Am Worthy charity benefits from Travelbags luncheon at the Premier Hotel O.R. Tambo Airport

On Friday, 30 May the South African travel club Travelbags hosted their monthly networking lunch at the Premier Hotel O.R. Tambo Airport in Kempton Park, Ekurhuleni.

Founded in 1958 as a non-profit organisation to provide networking opportunities for women in the travel industry, Travelbags lunches provide an opportunity for hospitality industry service providers to market their products and services directly to members of the travel industry.

Travelbags raise funds for charity organisations with every lunch they host and proceeds of this event will go to I Am Worthy in aid of initiatives to empower women and caring for widows and orphans. “I would like to thank Henk Bredenoord and the Premier Hotel O.R. Tambo team for inviting us to spend the afternoon with them and everyone attending the Travelbags luncheon. It was an absolutely wonderful day. I am very grateful for having had the opportunity to speak about I Am Worthy and the cause we support and we want to express our sincere gratitude for the donation we have received to support abused women and children in need.” Said Samantha Bronkhorst, General Manager of I Am Worthy after the event.

Premier Hotels and Resorts sponsored accommodation at any of their hotels across the country as prizes in the raffle which raised R8600 for the charity organisation. The hotel group also supported a professional conference organisers held at Turffontein Race Course last month where R15000 was raised for I Am Worthy.

Says General Manager Henk Bredenoord: “It was our pleasure to host the luncheon this month and to give attendees the opportunity to sample our culinary philosophy, which is ‘fresh, fast and fun’.”
