Feyenoord Gala Dinner raises € 628,470 for foundations
In November, the Feyenoord Gala Dinner raised 628,470 euros for the Feyenoord Foundation and the Giovanni van Bronckhorst Foundation. There was a strong bid on the unique auction items at the event, which resulted in raising an impressive amount of money for the foundations.
The exclusive event, entirely dedicated to the two charities, took place for the first time this year in the RDM Submarine Wharf. It was attended by the technical staff, players and business relations of Feyenoord. For a number of players, the Feyenoord Gala dinner was a reunion with their former head coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
Together with more than 600 other guests at the graceful Gala, the Feyenoorders enjoyed a high-quality dinner. In between the various courses, they were reminded of the strength of Feyenoord: the work that the club does under the pillars of sport – work and education which inspired the guests present at the event.
Sven van Beek, one of those present who had been playing in the Feyenoord shirt for years said: “When you see how many people are here today, that shows Feyenoord’s strength. The fact that we can do our bit to raise a large sum of money for the charities gives us a good feeling”.
