Every year the club takes a vote at the AGM to decide the main benefactor of the funds raised by the club. That charity is then presented with a cheque at the end of the year.
Throughout the year the club organises various events and fund raising activities which are often great fun, both for the members that take part and also the public.
The table below shows donations made by Eglinton Classic Club to various charity’s since the club was formed
