Hi
We have obtained admins permission to post on here and introduce the Grassroots Sports Foundation -
www.gsfuk.comThe Grassroots Sports Foundation aims to improve the lives of Disabled, Injured, Sick and Under Privileged people throughout the UK. We are not a Charity, we are official fundraisers for Help for Heroes.
As part of our launch we are delighted to introduce ‘Football For Forces’. ‘Football For Forces’ is targeting Football Fans but we are asking anybody interested to visit our website and make a donation of at least £1.00 of which every penny goes straight to Help for Heroes. The difference to usual requests for donations and fundraisers is that everybody who does donate at least £1.00 can be entered into a prize draw. The prizes on offer are
• 5 x £500 Cash Prizes (the Cash Prizes have been donated to the GSF and do not come out of the donations received).
• A David Beckham signed England Shirt.
• A Signed and Framed Lionel Messi Photo.
• A pair of Adidas F50 adizone football boots of which the winner can choose their size.
The prizes have been donated to the GSF to help us with our ‘Football For Forces’ launch.
As of April 1st 2011 we will be running an SMS UK Football Quiz, The UK Football Quiz gives people the chance to win prizes whilst also supporting charity, Each Quiz will last for 14 days and can be entered into via text message at any point during that period.
As stated we are already official fundraisers for Help for Heroes, but we are contacting Fans, Players and Members from the Premiership through to Sunday Morning Football to introduce the GSF and get them involved.
We would like people to contact us with Community Projects / Causes they are involved with or know of that need funding support. We are open to all requests, it may be you know of an individual needing help to purchase a wheelchair, a local club or school needs new goalposts, or your supporter’s team needs a new kit! We will consider all requests so please contact us, details are available on the website.
Funds raised will be split equally and donated to Help for Heroes and a different Charity / Community Project / Cause each quiz, information on which Charities / Community Projects / Causes will we are supporting for each quiz will be available on the website and on any literature produced.
The GSF will be mentioned on your local BBC Radio stations over the next few days in different features and bulletins so please listen out for that. We are also in contact with Sky, Talksport, etc and you will seeing and hearing us on there in the near future. Please join us on Facebook and Twitter through the links below.
