PSG supports healthcare workers and the most vulnerable

During this difficult time, the Paris Saint-Germain family has come together to show support to healthcare workers and to those that are most vulnerable to COVID-19.

Recognising its role as a responsible and committed club, Paris Saint-Germain has set up an exceptional support system for those that need it most.

After raising more than €200,000 with the sale of the special edition “Tous Unis” PSG jersey, the Club has launched a fundraising to support the 100,000 healthcare workers of Greater Paris University Hospitals (AP-HP). The funds raised will go towards healthcare staff’s vital necessities – accommodation and transport, meal delivery, equipment for relaxation rooms and communication.

The Paris Saint-Germain Foundation has also made a donation of €100,000 to its Secours Populaire Français. This money will be used to maintain social ties and provide food aid for the most needy, to support educational and fun activities for children covered by the charity, and to fund health and hygiene protective equipment for the volunteers working with the most vulnerable.

Moreover, together with Action Against Hunger (Action Contre La Faim), PSG will use part of the donations to distribute hygiene kits and food aid to over 5,000 people in difficult situations in France, and to protect the Action Against Hunger teams in France and abroad, such as in Africa and the Middle East, so that they can continue to work and support those at risk.

Finally, Paris Saint-Germain will, through its Endowment Fund,  support any other project related to the fight against the coronavirus epidemic, based on the fundraising total.
