The EPiC Golfing Society has supported many charities over the years. A charity is, in recent times, chosen for the 5 year tenure by the incumbent President and all proceeds for ball sweeps and 50% of the Charity day profit goes to their nominated charity. Again recently every 5 years a charity day is organised and the incumbent Captain chooses a separate charity and that charity receives the other 50% of the proceeds. Please see gallery below for correspondence relating to our charity work.
