Nassau, Bahamas - Members of  the Antique Auto Club of The Bahamas have donated funds from their Annual Antique Auto Show to the Sir Victor Sassoon Heart Foundation to specifically assist with medical expenses for necessary heart surgery for a 10-year old boy. It was recently discovered that young William Farrington, a student of Ridgeland Primary School has been living with a hole in his heart and urgent surgery is required to repair it.  

Each year the Antique Auto Club selects a charity – or charities - involving children to be the beneficiary of the full proceeds of their Annual Show. This is the second year that the Club has partnered with the Sassoon Heart Foundation. It has proven to be a winning partnership and several members of the club have referred to it as a “wonderful heartwarming experience”.
