We would like to thank everyone who contributed to the Focus on Foodbanks Matchday as we took on Dundee at McDiarmid Park last week, with the generosity of supporters helping to raise more than £3,000 for the Perth and Kinross Foodbank.
Fans of both clubs came together to support the initiative, donating an incredible 60 full crates of food and toiletries, equivalent to two van loads.
A further £1,083 was collected in monetary donations on the day, which, when combined with contributions received in the lead-up to the match, will see more than £3,000 transferred to the Perth and Kinross Foodbank.
The donations will provide a welcome boost to both the foodbank’s stock and its financial reserves, helping it continue to support individuals and families across the local community.
We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to everyone who donated food, toiletries or money, as well as all those who helped organise and support the initiative on the day.
The generosity shown by supporters of both St Johnstone and Dundee was fantastic, and once again demonstrated the positive impact football clubs and their communities can have when they come together for a good cause.
