Camelon Juniors announce new Charity Partner

Camelon Juniors are delighted to announce that our official Charity Partner will be Maggie’s Forth Valley.  The partnership will see Maggie’s take pride of place on the back of our strips for what is a very special season for the club, as we mark our centenary year together with it being 25 years since our famous Scottish Junior Cup win.

The club will be donating a percentage from sales of this season’s replica shirts to help raise funds for the centre along with other fundraising activities during the season.

Tony Smith, CJFC Club Secretary, commented “I don’t think there is anyone at the club who hasn’t been inspired by Cammy (Cameron Shanks) with the journey he’s been on and the fantastic fund raising he’s done for the Centre. It’s really opened our eyes to the work that Maggie’s do and the difference it makes.  As a club we want to help raise further awareness of Maggie’s and do what we can to help raise valuable funds for them.”

Speaking for Maggies, Cristina Pouso, Centre Fundraising Manager Forth Valley said “We are delighted and proud that Camelon Juniors have chosen Maggie’s Forth Valley as their charity partner.  We wish the team all the best for the next season.  This partnership will help us raise the money needed to provide our free programme of support to anyone affected by cancer especially through this difficult time.  We have moved our support online to adapt to the current situation, but our centres are now open as people need us more than ever.  Partnerships like this help us raise the funds we need but also to raise awareness that we are here with you when you need us.”
