FCM players donate DKK 1,000 per goal for FCM Society

The players of the Danish champion donate DKK 1,000 for each goal scored during October, November and December. The full donation goes to FCM Samfund’s Christmas gift project. FC Midtjylland scored 19 goals in the last quarter of the year. They are divided into three goals in the Champions League, 15 in the 3F Superliga and one goal in the cup tournament. Pione Sisto currently leads the season’s top scorer list with five goals, while Anders Dreyer is just behind him with four goals.

For all these goals, the team donates DKK 1,000 each time to FCM Samfund’s Christmas gift project, where Christmas gifts are distributed to families with limited financial resources.

This year again, the FCM players themselves drive out to some of the families with the Christmas presents, just as they have done for the past three years. As always, the team has shown great interest and willingness to help FCM Communities and make a difference for the many families and children.

FCM Society Christmas Project

Every year in December, FCM Samfund delivers Christmas presents to children and young people from families who are financially needy. Players, volunteers, board members, staff and business partners provide the gifts, which include training clothes, sports bags, football boots from Nike as well as towels, a ticket to a 3F Superliga match and most importantly, the possibility of a year of free membership and membership to a local football club.

In collaboration with DGI, the local club can apply for grants for the contingent, so that each individual child has the opportunity to participate in the local club, meet friends and be part of a local community and community in the football club.

FCM Samfund’s distribution of Christmas gifts aims to help families in a financially distressed situation around Christmas. The goal is to give as many children and young people as possible access to a football club, where you meet strong social relationships and communities – here you meet new friends and contribute to a strong local environment.

On-field captain and board member of FCM Society Erik Sviatchenko highlights the joy of giving back. “For a number of years now, we have had a tradition of donating DKK 1,000 per goal we score in October, November and December. It means a lot to us to be able to give back and here in the form of financial support. We hope FCM Samfund can benefit from it and the many people who need a supportive hand” , says Sviatchenko and elaborates: “This can be a critical time for many families and we are determined to help in any way we can, we hope that many of our fans will also help us. We, in FCM, are a big family and everyone who is part of that family, we must take care. It means a lot to us.”

Preben Rokkjær, Marketing & Support Director at FC Midtjylland is also pleased with the Christmas gift distribution, which is hugely supported by the Central Jutland squad. “We are incredibly honored that the Superliga players have again this year chosen to donate to FCM Society. The support of the players and our partners is crucial for us to be able to give Christmas presents to the children”, says Preben Rokkjær and tells about the experience by handing out the presents: “It is an absolutely fantastic experience to be allowed to experience some of the children who receive the gifts light up. It is even nicer it to see them out in the local clubs, where many of them get the opportunity to participate in football, in the social community and the local community for the first time.”
