AFC Bournemouth
AFC Bournemouth were pleased to welcome the recent recipients of Cherries Community Fund donations to Vitality Stadium on Thursday 25th May for their large cheque presentation photo.
The organisations benefitted from the club's popular half-time Cherries Community Draw, which gives supporters the chance to win cash prizes while helping the local community through the Cherries Community Fund.
The fund has helped a wide variety of projects in the local area, including helping several football clubs purchase kit and equipment, local schools purchasing specialist equipment, a variety of community projects including street safety and helping adults with learning difficulties, as well as donations to help sustain various support groups and helping the homeless across Bournemouth.
The excellent work and charitable donations will continue throughout the 2023/24 campaign as the panel will meet quarterly in 2023 and panels are scheduled in March, June, September, and December to distribute more funds back into the local community.
The Cherries Community Fund would now welcome applications for donations which will continue across the year, with several worthy causes benefiting since its start in January 2016 and a total of £201,016.55 given to worthy causes since the fund started!
