Cardiff City Supporters Club partners with Community Foundation for 2024/25 season

Cardiff City FC Community Foundation announced their partnership with Cardiff City Supporters Club through their Charity Partnership programme for the 2024/25 season.

Cardiff City Supporters Club has been serving supporters of Cardiff City FC for many years, providing away travel and support for all of its members. The group have been supporting Cardiff City FC Community Foundation since 2020, and generously supported our Community Foundation Fixture last season.

Their commitment to the surrounding Cardiff City FC fanbase and passion for making a meaningful difference in our community will directly help the Community Foundation extend the reach and impact of their initiatives.

A key focus of their new partnership includes the collaborative support of their impactful community and education programmes - which generates a social impact value of £11million a year.

Jane Ford, Supporters Club representative, said: “Cardiff City Supporters Club are proud to be sponsors again this year - supporting the Community Foundation to achieve their Hat-Trick of Goals."

By partnering with Cardiff City FC Community Foundation, your organisation can make an extraordinary impact on their work to change lives and transform communities across South Wales. Learn more here.
