wph – Wohnbau- und Projektentwicklung Hamburg GmbH – is committed not only to the urban development of the city of Hamburg, but has now supported our foundation for the second time with a charity golf tournament at Golfpark Weidenhof in Pinneberg.

Among the participants – employees, friends, families and business partners of wph – our foundation’s founder was also actively involved. While the weather dutifully played its part and blessed the tournament afternoon with warm rays of sunshine, Michael Hoppe explored the extensive grounds in a golf cart. He visited each of the committed tournament participants to learn more about the different golf clubs and the game. What did he learn? A great deal.

Nevertheless, he preferred to take part in the tournament as an observer and encouraged the honorary guests Elizabeth Harases and Surelda Andrew, who had traveled all the way from Namibia, employees of the airline Air Namibia, to take their first golf lessons. We are pleased that the cooperation with Air Namibia, which has existed since 2016, is being continued. As a logistics partner of our foundation, the airline provides free flights, monthly free baggage allowance for shipments to the projects, as well as space for editorial contributions in the flight magazine „Flamingo“.

As part of the golf tournament, Air Namibia also donated a trip to Namibia including 5 days on site, to be auctioned off to the highest bidder in a silent auction.

A big thank-you goes to the wph team, first and foremost Simon Vollmer, and to Elena Fedor for the excellent organization. The generous donations in the five-figure range go directly to our projects and support our steps children on their educational journey!

And we can continue to rejoice: it has already been decided that this successful golf charity event will enter its 3rd round next year!
