She will make sure all the checks and balances are done so all the money raised helps the children in the Little Angels Orphanage in Uganda.

Bel is just so overwhelmed that the local community supported the Mollymook Hilltop event for the orphans so passionately.

Bel, being a novice when it comes to organising golf days, did not know what sort of support her team would get and had no expectations.

They did get help from a local man who had experience organising such events.

"It all turned out well and about 90 golfers took part which was great," Bel said.

The auction turned out the be the major money maker from the event.

The total is just under the $18 000 goal but with more pledges come in the target should be reached.

Bel, from the local Trailblazers Travel, said they will be able to achieve many good things with the money and added just $1o00 goes a long way in Uganda.

The orphanage, run by a woman aptly known as Happy, had built some dormitories, but they were basic, to say the least.

"The rooms were semi-finished with no doors or windows and the boys were actually sleeping in them," Bel said.

"It was pretty much four walls with a doorway which is still not ideal and it was so basic ."

There is up to three children in each bed.

The facility does not have running water or a bathroom and one toilet for 300 people.

"They are surviving and in a lot better situation than without Happy and the work she is doing, but they do deserve better," Bel said.

Happy can only house 125 children a night and the other 200 have to find somewhere else to sleep.

Bel said it was not safe or ideal for so many children needing to find somewhere safe at night.

Bel and a group of travellers only came across the orphanage in October.

She said Happy was an inspiring person.

"She has devoted her life to giving these children a chance," Bel said.

When they are in the orphanage, from 8am to 4pm, is the happiest time in their lives, according to Bel.

"They think they are so lucky," she said

"They are given access to education and it's only a basic education but having that gives them so many more opportunities which will help pull them out of poverty.

"Some of the children are AIDS orphans or come from families where they have been abused.

"Those kids are amazing and they just melt your heart."

Some children do have families, but their parents can't afford to raise them.

Bel said tears of joy roll down her eyes when she sees the children dancing and hears them singing.

Meanwhile, a lot of people at the golf day did not fully understand what they were supporting but throughout the event, they got more information, which included YouTube videos.

When they found out more about the cause they dug deep into their pockets.

"For people who have not travelled a lot, it comes as a bit of a shock. You hear about these stories involving children but to see it is a different thing," Bel said.

"We had those YouTube videos going and people think 'wow this is real'.

"It (the golf day) was a great success and if all we do is get is these classrooms up we have done what we can."

Over $4 500 has been sent over to finish off the boys' dorm and then Happy wants to build more classrooms, which could also double as dorms.

Happy will send Bel a quote for the work. Bel will make sure everything is transparent and the money is spent correctly.

"I am keeping Happy accountable and I want to be accountable for my sponsors and supporters because they have trusted us with this money," she said.

"I get my guys on the ground to give the quote an okay and then I okay it."

Bel gets updates and videos on the work between three to four times a week.

All the updates go on Facebook for all to see.

Bel has a trip going over September and people can go along, see the work and even make a mud brick or two.

While Happy can't rely on funding Bel will do more fundraising.

The local Bunnings team wants to help as does some Masters Builders members.

Bel would like to thank all the sponsors and golfers.

"Everybody was just amazing and so many local businesses paid $500 to put up a sign on one of the holes," she said.

Bel said it felt good the have the community's trust.
