  • A Foundation day at which the Foundation raises money through raffles in the lounges at Goodison Park.
  • Regular raffles before each home game at Goodison Park.
  • Dinners and social functions throughout the year at which former players normally attend and speak to the guests.[2]

Patrons

The Patrons of the charity are:

gollark: Sounds like a weird thing to be its own subject though. Wouldn't it be basically just statistics?
gollark: Or... whatever qualification you do, I guess?
gollark: Data science is an A-level?
gollark: Oh, you do computer science? I picked that as my A-level option for next year, not very sure if it's actually a good/sensible, er, course, though.
gollark: I would probably just go for "make a library and stick that in every program", but this works to.
