The trust was born 10 years ago in Wānaka to help families in need and those who cannot afford medical care for their children.
Trust member Laurel Gilks said in that decade the trust had helped over 400 families.
"It is for the medical care for children of families who can’t afford to pay for it. One of the greatest needs in Wānaka at present," she said.
Local businesses have been extremely generous in donating items for this year’s event, set for March 14-16.
This year’s charity golf tournament will include an auction selling off helicopter flights as well as a 2024 signed All Blacks jersey.
The tournament has been running for 20 years and always draws a big crowd.
There will be four teams of 40 golfers on the three-day tournament.
Over the years, sponsor Hirepool has raised thousands of dollars for local charities, by holding live and silent auctions and raffles during the course of this weekend.
The public were welcome to call into the clubhouse over the weekend and place bids on the items displayed. The cut off point would be 2.30pm on Sunday.
Ms Gilks said the Trust was grateful to be offered the proceeds of this event.
"Times have been tough in recent years, and Wānaka can be an expensive place to live, especially for young families.
"Covid affected the income of many families and contributed to stress and health issues.
Locals were facing numerous problems with the health of their children, including psychological and learning difficulties as well as medical problems, she said.
Parents concerned about their children’s health should seek the advice of medical and educational experts, and they forwarded applications to the Trust who offered assistance based on the need and funding available, she said.
"Raising funds in this climate can be difficult, and the Trust is hugely grateful to Hirepool, the golf club and the generosity of the Wānaka locals."
