Why?
That's my first thought, is the club hard up for £5k or something?
I would think not.
I believe the club is still a long way from being financially sustainable but £5k would be just a drop in the ocean in comparison?
So why are they doing this???
Anyway...
Weʼre raising £5,000 to help make following the Wanderers an even better experience. This is the BWFCST Fundraiser - let’s do this together!
Introduction
The recent Wanderers Bond was a huge success raising circa £4.5m towards projects at the Club. The minimum investment of £500 meant that some fans couldn’t or chose not to participate; yet we know there are still many fans keen to help the club in whatever way possible.
That is why we are launching a Supporters' Trust fundraiser as an additional and direct fundraiser for fans who couldn’t or chose not to participate in the bond scheme.
How will it work?
Through this JustGiving page, you can make a non-refundable donation of whatever amount you feel you can afford. No amount is too small, and all funds raised will go directly to the Club to support specific projects.
What will the money be spent on?
The fundraiser will run for the next few weeks and once the final fundraising amount is known, the Trust will agree with the club the shortlist of projects this fundraiser could support.
This could be a contribution to FanZone enhancements, Academy facilities or Stadium improvements as examples.
That shortlist will be shared with Supporters' Trust members by email, and fans via Facebook & Twitter via a poll for YOU to vote for YOUR chosen project. The project receiving the most votes will benefit from whatever money is raised.
This is another great opportunity for fans to play a part in building the future of Bolton Wanderers.
Please get involved if you feel you can.
