Celtic FC Foundation Christmas Appeal 2015
For most of us, Christmas is a time of joy, but for others, it is a time of great difficulty when facing poverty and hardship.

That is why Celtic FC Foundation is delighted to launch its 2015 Christmas Appeal to honour our founding principles and help those in our community who are most in need. 

This year, we want to:

  • help around 200 local families provide a happy Christmas for their children – a meal on the table and gifts for the kids.
  • support local charities who care for those experiencing homelessness or other disadvantage.
