ABOUT TEFC
The England football team has raised over £1million for charitable causes following a collective decision by the team to set up their own charitable trust, the Team England Footballers Charity.
Allied to the financial contribution being made, the Team England Footballers Charity will use the time, influence and reputation of the players to support charities including Children’s Hospices UK; WellChild; the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK and the Professional Footballers Association Charity Initiatives.
Speaking about the Team England Footballers Charity, John Terry said: “Every player in the England squad works in some way with local or national charities but as a team we decided to use our role as England footballers to not only contribute money and our time but to also help raise awareness of particular issues.”
In addition to supporting the other charities, the Team England Footballers Charity has launched its own Outreach Programme whilst continuing to support the FA and their grassroots and charity campaigns.
A CAF Trust Account, under the name Team England Footballers Charity has been set up via the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF). CAF is a non-profit organisation committed to effective giving, providing a range of specialist services to donors, companies and charities in the UK and internationally.
