Enfield Football Club are very proud to announce the start of our fundraising charity “Five Aid”. Our mission is to raise money for our chosen charities each year with all charities receiving an equal share of the money raised during the course of the year. Enfield FC are proud to be a family and community club and therefore we want to give back to local charities and the people within our community to help support & raise vital funds for more research.
WHAT IS FIVE AID?
Five Aid is fundraising with 100% of donations going to five nominated charities. These charities are; The Lily Foundation, The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust, Mind West Essex, Home Start Essex, Rainbow Services. You can read more about each Charity also further down this page.
HOW WILL ENFIELD FC RAISE THE FUNDS TO SUPPORT THE CHARITIES?
The main fundraiser will be asking for a yearly £10 donation which is paid online through our secure checkout. This £10 goes direct to the charity fund and you will receive membership for Enfield FC alongside this.
WHAT DO I GET FOR MY £10 DONATION?
Our 2023/24 season starts on the 5th August and at every home game throughout the campaign we will draw out a membership number at random. If it is your membership number, you will receive 4 matchday tickets to a home match of your choice, a bottle of Enfield FC fizz and after the match, you and your guests will be asked to present our Man of The Match award and will receive a framed photo of the presentation from our photographer after the event.
CAN I PARTNER WITH FIVE AID?
If you are a small business and would like to be involved with the charity, Enfield FC will provide a 6ft x 3ft Pitchside Board with four companies sharing the advertising board which will feature your company name/logo, contact details and your website. 100% of your donation will go to our charity and Enfield FC will cover the cost of the advertising board. Your company will also receive a squad photo with your board which will be framed and sent to you to display in your office/business premises.
WILL THERE BE ANY CHARITY EVENTS?
We will aim to host 3/4 events throughout the year to fundraise for the charity and becoming a member will mean you are guaranteed a place at our prestigious events held for Five Aid. We are also planning on hosting an end of season Charity Match.
WHAT IS OUR REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER?
We have applied for our Charity Number and is still pending but we should have this around the start of September 2023.
