The COVID19 epidemic has shaken the entire world and its effects can be felt in all walks of life – including football, of course.
For Scottish patron James Anderson, who has made similar donations to the art world in the past, enough reason to intervene: he donated nearly three million pounds over the summer to support Scottish football clubs and their surrounding communities.
“When Kovid-19 hit, I realized that it would be a significant loss for cities across the country if their local club’s existence was threatened. It’s not just about passion on the pitch, that’s why We are playing the game. ” The Edinburgh-based philanthropist explained that the responsibility of our organizations in communities across Scotland is also BBC.
“For the first time in the last few years I have made the difference clubs can make for people’s lives, and so I am very happy to be able to offer my support during this difficult time.
Football is at the heart of communities across Scotland and these days there are not many social organizations that bring people together to catch them in a trap when they fall. “
The funds are disbursed through the SPFL Trust, with each club able to apply for a fixed grant of £ 50,000.
Along with other organizations, it will continue to provide further funding in the coming years.
