Peoples Foundation would like to announce that we have held our inaugural charity football tournament with great success. We have managed to raise over £2,300 for Project Gaza which will benefit many individuals and families who have suffered from the on-going conflicts
We would like to thank all our sponsors and donors who made this event possible and also all the participants and volunteers without whom we would not be able to achieve all our goals and targets
The Cause
We all know the situation in Gaza and we cannot hide from the fact that many people are suffering on a daily basis. Conflict has left many people without homes, family, shelter or even food & water. We believe this to be an important cause to raise money for as all your donations will go towards the rebuilding of Gaza and providing the people with basic essentials to help them recover and rebuild
The Tournament
The tournament started off with 16 teams split into 4 groups, each consisting of 4 teams. From each group the winners and runner-ups qualified to play in the knockout rounds. The first knockout round was the Quarter Finals in which 8 teams went head to head according to a predetermined fixture list where one group winner would play another groups runner up. 4 teams advanced to the Semi Final with only 2 places up for grabs in the final. To add to the drama the final went into a penalty shoot-out and ultimately team Galacticos came out on top to be the winners of our first tournament
Congratulations to Team Galacticos
Congratulations to Team Galacticos on becoming the champions of our Peoples Foundation Goals 4 Gaza Tournament 2021 - The Peoples Foundation Team
Our Volunteers
As you are aware we are a non-profit charity run by a small group of trustees who do as much as we can in our spare time to achieve our charity goals. This is why we we are hugely appreciative for all the time and help provided to us by the volunteers. So much of the work is done by our volunteers to make events such as this run smoothly as possible and without them we would not be able to accomplish everything we have done so far. A quick mention to our volunteer referees who may have had it a little harder then the rest of us and we thank you for patience and composure
The Event
It was not just the skills and goals that were on show at the event. We also set out some stalls to help raise extra donations for the cause. These stalls provided water and energy drinks and we also had Mocktails, Donuts, Sweets & Crisps and Palestine caps for sale from which all the profits went towards Project Gaza
We hope everyone enjoyed the event but more so we wanted to raise awareness and get people more inspired to do however much they can to help
