In what looks set to be another difficult winter for many, Manchester United and the Foundation will once again be partnering with FareShare Greater Manchester, the local branch of the UKs biggest food charity that diverts food donations to local foodbanks and other charities.

We are encouraging Manchester United staff, players and fans to donate FareShare GM to support those who need it most this Christmas. There are more families in dire need of support after the harrowing 18 months they have gone through, so it is vitally important that we once again go above and beyond with our efforts showing that the United Family are the best.

With support from Club, Foundation and fans, we pledge to donate a total of £100,000 which will secure and distribute an extra 170 tonnes of food to help feed families in Greater Manchester. 170 tonnes would distribute approximately 400k meals.

We would like to encourage all fans to support this initiative if they are able to, by making a monetary donation on this page which will be given directly to the charity.

FareShare Greater Manchester is run by environmental charity EMERGE 3Rs (registered charity number 1132944) in partnership with FareShare UK.
