SWP made a big splash last weekend (November 21) at the Hedge Funds Care (HFC) Gala, held at The Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman. This global charity, also known as Help For Children, was formed in 1998 with the sole purpose of raising funds to support organisations that help prevent and treat the effects of child abuse around the world.

The Grand Cayman HFC gala event began in 2005 and has so far distributed over USD $2.5 million in 64 grants to agencies and organisations in the Cayman Islands that work to prevent and treat child abuse and neglect. Supported mainly by the hedge fund industry, this is a very popular event that sells out quickly every year.

SWP wanted to support this admirable fundraising effort and donated the following to be used for the silent auction:

Kilo gold bar
1000 oz silver bar
10 oz PAMP Suisse gold bar
25 x 1 oz Silver Maple Leaf coins

As you can imagine there was a real buzz around our display as many of the guests had never touched or held this type of investment product before. We were very happy to contribute to such a worthy cause and enjoyed being able to add a little bit of the extraordinary to an already amazing evening.
