Story

Support the fantastic community work of The Albion Foundation and win a signed, match-worn away shirt from West Bromwich Albion’s promotion run-in from the 2019/20 season.

The raffle follows on from the Foundation’s home shirt auction which raised over £10,000 for the charity and supporters can now put their name in the hat to win one of 18 away shirts for just £10.

The shirts include that of Baggies legend Chris Brunt, top goalscorer Charlie Austin and the Sky Bet Championship’s top assist maker, Matheus Pereira.

Tickets cost £10 and supporters can enter as many times as they like.

To purchase a ticket, please donate £10 and leave your email address in the comments section of your donation so you can be contacted. Donations that do not leave an email address can not be considered to win a shirt as the Foundation will have no way in contacting you. 

If supporters do not wish to share their email address, please send proof of your donation to events@albionfoundation.co.uk for your entry to count. 

The funds raised will help to support the Foundation's vital community work in reaching those that need help most as a result of the pandemic.

 The Club's charitable arm will be able to continue delivering food parcels across the Sandwell area to residents and families who might otherwise go without vital nutrition.

 So far, the Foundation has delivered more than 10,000 food packages, with that number rising on a weekly basis.

The funds will also allow the charity to expand the work they do in reaching people who may feel lonely or isolated due to the ongoing situation.

Currently, close to 5,000 phone calls have been made to elderly residents to support them throughout the period, with regular virtual meetings also happening to allow fans to connect together and feel supported.

The Foundation now has plans to begin to take the loneliness and isolation programmes back into a physical environment, should the government guidelines permit it.
