    Green Brigade & Celtic FC Foundation - Foodbank Collection

    On Saturday the 21st of December, before we play Hearts at Celtic Park, the Green Brigade and Celtic FC Foundation have organised a collection for the local foodbank in the Calton Parkhead Parish Church on Helenvale Street. It's a sad state of affairs that such places exist in 2013 but the least we can do is try and help struggling families over the festive period.

    There was a similar collection in the Maryhill area before we played Partick Thistle and it was really succesful so we hope this one can be just as fruitful. Please give generously. All the details are on the poster below. Don't hesitate to ask any questions



    As stated above, very good idea. and glad there are still people wanting to do what Celtic football club was set up for.
    hope everyone can give generously.

    theirs a picture with all the information but cant upload at the moment so anyone else feel free:50:

    No harm in giving this it's own thread though, it's for a good cause.

    Went looking for the pic for you.

    I'll be going to the game so I'll try to gather some stuff together for the collection. Already gave a bunch of food stuffs to charity the other day as my work do a food drive as well, feels great once you've given a lot of stuff :icon_mrgreen:

    Sad its needed. Hopefully they will be inundated with the above items. Should also remember that toys are likely also needed.

    Why did that come across so feminine?

    The use of the word "lovely". Should have said "that's a pure quality 'hing there daein by ra way"

    Very nice gesture.....I wonder if that will make the back page of the Daily Hun or have the likes of Peter Lawwell, Neil Lennon or Michael Kelly commenting on it.....it probably won't because * mend the "terrorist supporting Green Brigade"

    FFS can people not just give their support to things like this without the bad mouthing of the club.Who in fact are backing this via their Celtic foundation charity.Anyway I'm sure we will back this foodbank on the day and there will be thousands of contributions .
