On Saturday, October 23, 2021, ahead of our home match against St Johnstone, Celtic FC Foundation and our partner Glasgow North East Foodbank will host our annual food collection, where we are reaching out once again to our wonderful supporters to ask for donations of food and essentials.

We are also encouraging supporters who're unable to attend the match but would still like to make a contribution, to do so by donating the equivalent of a bag of groceries virtually.

Supporters can donate whatever they can afford e.g. £10, £20, £30, etc. with funds raised covering the cost of food and essentials, which along with what is collected on the day, will be provided to those most in need of our support, via Glasgow North East Foodbank and our other FFGF charity partners.

This will be the first physical food collection that has taken place at Celtic Park for over two years. In that time, the most vulnerable in our communities have faced extreme hardship and repeated uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and this will likely continue for the foreseeable future due to rising costs, including fuel, and the end of a number of key support schemes.

Celtic FC Foundation's primary focus has, and will continue to be, providing assistance to those most affected by the crisis, via our Football for Good Fund (FFGF).

To date, the FFGF has helped thousands of the most vulnerable, through the provision of food and essentials, assistance to tackle fuel poverty and support to combat loneliness and isolation and promote positive mental health and wellbeing.

To support our food drive, simply make your donation either in person or virtually ahead of the 3pm kick-off and, with your help, we can continue to use football for good to make a positive difference.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
