Donation drive launched UTST | UNITE TO SAVE THE TOWN
 
[url]https://www.wrexhamafc.co.uk/UTST-unite-to-save-the-town[/url]

[I]"In this unprecedented time, football clubs across the country face very uncertain futures – which is we are calling on Wrexham AFC supporters to Unite To Save the Town.

The financial future is uncertain for football clubs at all levels, including Wrexham AFC, and there is no obvious date for when we can resume our ‘normal’ football activities.

Football has rightly taken a back seat at a time of national crisis, but from the club’s point of view, the COVID-19 pandemic cost us £250,000 in lost match-day income. Furthermore, with non-urgent work shut down, we have had to close the Racecourse and furlough all paid staff – denying us sources of income such as the club shop.

As detailed in our updates, the club has financial reserves but these are being eaten into and we have a rent payment to make on the Racecourse soon too."[/I]

Rewards crowdfunded style:

[I]"We are also offering rewards to any supporters who donate certain amounts to our UTST fundraiser, as detailed below. Any amount contributed will be hugely appreciated in these circumstances, however, and you can donate without claiming a reward.
[/I][I]
These rewards include the likes of season tickets, hospitality, signed items, match-worn memorabilia and even a box for a game with one of our most well-known supporters, Bootlegger!

Our UTST fundraiser will run for three months and we will provide regular updates on the progress made – and the difference your contributions make."[/I]

Fair play, these are good ideas. Hopefully they're executed properly. I'd like to think you can "bring a friend" for most of them as well, as they could be a bit weird on your own.

Re: Donation drive launched UTST | UNITE TO SAVE THE TOWN
 
Personally speaking I would want to see a more detailed breakdown of our current financial situation before I made a choice to donate to Wrexham Fc over other worthwhile causes. They admit they have cash reserves but aren't telling us how much they are. How do we make a decision on donating funds without that information?
Can the club afford to pay the rent without donations? What is the shortfall?

Re: Donation drive launched UTST | UNITE TO SAVE THE TOWN
 
Perhaps I'm being harsh as it's good to see some ideas at last, but not many of those offers appeal to me greatly. Many will also be out of the price range of most fans during the current financial climate.
