Our Charities
The money raised from the auction during these events goes to the Manchester United Foundation and Christies Cancer. Here is some important information about these two great organisations:
The Manchester United Foundation:
Manchester United Foundation was formed to celebrate 50 years of the Club playing in Europe. It aims to use the passion for Manchester United to educate, motivate and inspire young people to build a better life for themselves and improve the communities they live in. The Foundation delivers football coaching, skills training, personal development and life changing experiences, providing young people with opportunities to change their lives for the better. Through football, we encourage young people to develop as players and more importantly as people.
Christies Cancer:
The Christie Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest single-site cancer treatment centres in Europe, and an international leader in cancer research and development. The hospital is based in Manchester, but because of its specialist nature, patients travel to the Christie from all over the North West and beyond. Around 40,000 patients are treated each year and medical staff share their expertise with colleagues in hospitals across the region. Manchester United’s support of The Christie is helping to recruit full time staff and new equipment to work with young cancer patients and help them to lead as normal life a life as possible during a time when they face complete upheaval.
