At the heart of First Consulting Alliance's (FCA) social sustainability initiatives lies a profound commitment to creating positive impact in our communities. We're proud to share our recent sponsorship and participation in the Hartbeespoort Animal Welfare Society (HAWS) Golf Day, held on Friday, May 9, 2025, at the picturesque Pecanwood Estate.
Supporting Local Causes That Matter
The annual HAWS Golf Day, organized in partnership with Rotary Hartbeespoort-Brits, serves as a vital fundraising event for an organisation doing incredible work. HAWS provides essential shelter, medical care, and rehabilitation services to abandoned and neglected animals in the Hartbeespoort area.
FCA proudly sponsored the 1st Tee box, while our connectivity partner VOX showed their support by sponsoring the 2nd Tee box. These sponsorships directly contribute to HAWS' ability to continue their mission of animal rescue and care.
A Day of Perfect Weather and Friendly Competition
With perfect weather conditions and a course in excellent condition, the day set the stage for both meaningful networking and spirited competition. FCA was delighted to have several esteemed clients join us for this worthwhile cause, including representatives from:
Plasser South Africa: Deon Helberg, Danie Minnaar, Pieter van Blerk
QI Logistics: Dylan Horsfall
Langa Security: David Bruwer
The combined team from FCA, Langa Security, and QI Logistics showcased our collaborative spirit on and off the field, securing an impressive 6th place finish. The team took home valuable prizes including an Inc-co Cordless Drill, an Inc-co Jigsaw, a Chipping Net, and a Cooler bag filled with goodies. Our friends from Plasser South Africa played exceptionally well, narrowly missing the cutoff for prizes.
Impact That Extends Beyond the Golf Course
The day's success went beyond friendly competition. We're particularly inspired by our client Langa Security's commitment to assist HAWS with renovating the bathroom facilities at their offices - a perfect example of how business relationships can evolve into meaningful community partnerships.
"At FCA we believe in fostering relationships that create ripple effects of positive change," shared Dougal Marshall, our Service Delivery Director. "Seeing our clients like Langa Security extend their support beyond the event itself perfectly aligns with FCA's vision of sustainable community impact."
Building Lasting Partnerships for Change
While the Golf Day itself was a tremendous success, FCA's commitment to animal welfare and community support doesn't end there. The funds raised through this event will help HAWS continue their essential work, providing:
Emergency medical care for injured animals
Food and shelter for abandoned pets
Spay and neuter programs to address pet overpopulation
Educational initiatives promoting responsible pet ownership
Join First Consulting Alliance in Making a Difference
Inspired by Langa Security's additional commitment to facility improvements, we invite our partners, clients, and FCA team members to explore ways they too can support HAWS and similar organisations working to create more compassionate communities. Whether through donations, volunteering, or participation in future events, every contribution makes a difference.

This initiative is part of First Consulting Alliance's broader social sustainability program, which focuses on creating meaningful impact through strategic partnerships with organizations addressing critical needs in our communities.
