Get your child’s very own letter from Santa and their favourite Celtic star

With Christmas fast approaching, Celtic FC Foundation are delighted to announce that our Letter from Santa fundraising initiative will return, as part of the Christmas Appeal of our Football for Good Fund (FFGF).

It offers an opportunity for you to create a personalised and completely unique letter for the child or children in your life, at a cost of £5 per letter. Each one will arrive in a specially designed envelope, not only signed by Santa himself, but also featuring the signature of each recipient’s favourite Celtic star.

The letter will be posted to the address of your choice ahead of Santa’s visit and will feature the child’s name, age and what they would like for Christmas.

You can order your unique letter via the dedicated listing on our Charity eBay account HERE.

Upon purchase, you will receive a confirmation email from eBay. This will be followed – within the next working day – with a more detailed email featuring a link, allowing you to provide all of the relevant data, to fully personalise each letter. To ensure speedy despatch, please provide the required details upon receipt of the link from Celtic FC Foundation.

The deadline to place all orders, allowing for postage before Christmas, will be Friday, December 10, 2021. Postage of letters will take place (first class) from Monday, December 6 (international) and from Monday, December 13 (UK).

All funds raised from the Letter from Santa initiative will support this year’s Christmas Appeal.

We want to give hundreds of families in our communities the Christmas they deserve, making sure there’s food on the table and gifts under the tree.

We also wish to help pensioners, women and children in refuge, the homeless community and refugees – as well as a whole host of others facing poverty and hardship.

Charity, and the generosity and compassion of the Celtic Family, will always be our past, present and future – it’s our heritage, our responsibility, our lifeblood.

Please join Celtic FC Foundation in making a difference this Christmas – it’s our reason for being.
