Fundraising for Anthony Nolan
Story
Loughborough AU invites you to help support The Rob George Foundation and Anthony Nolan.
Rob George sadly passed away on the 9th of December 2013 after losing his epic battle with Leukaemia. Rob was not only a very talented cricketer player but also had a very positive influence over others in the club. Elected as chairman of the club at the end of last year’s season, Rob was at the heart of Loughborough cricket.
Losing Rob so suddenly left us all very sad. Thankfully Rob's positive attitude and passion for life was far too strong to ever be beaten. In loving memory of Robbie G is a charity set up and run by his family.
The Rob George Foundation
The Rob George Foundation has two clear objectives:
1) To provide practical and/or financial support to young people with life threatening or terminal illnesses.
2) To provide financial support to young people who demonstrate exceptional commitment and/or ability in the worlds of sport or the performing arts but may be held back by their financial situation from pursuing their goals.
The Rob George Cricket Day
On the 4th of may 2014 Loughborough University will be hosting the first Rob George 20/20 Cricket tournament. The aims of the day are simple:
1) Celebrate and share Rob's enjoyment, passion and commitment to Loughborough sport
2) Raise awareness and funds for The Rob George Foundation and Anthony Nolan

The day is all about remembering Rob so bring a few cold ones, a pocket full of change and let’s raise a glass for him.
EVERY SINGLE PENNY WE MAKE will go into the pocket of The Rob George Foundation and Anthony Nolan. The impact these charities have is incredible and they deserve our support. Please come down and support such a great cause in memory of a top gent.
