The Supporters Club
The Supporters Club is BT Sport’s charitable initiative that uses the power of sport to create a better future for young people facing some of life’s toughest challenges.
BT is donating £1.5million and in addition are covering the costs of the fund so every pound you give works as hard as possible to change young lives.
The money raised by The Supporters Club helps charities that are working tirelessly on the ground. In the UK, this includes disability charities for children, programmes that use sport to get young people back into education or employment, and projects that engage young people in their communities. Internationally, we help projects such as health and education centres that use football to reach out to some of the world’s most vulnerable children and projects that use motorbikes to get life-saving healthcare to isolated villages.
These projects and so many more like them are changing young lives forever.
Registered Charity No. The Supporters Club Fund is managed by Comic Relief, 326568 (England/Wales); SC039730 (Scotland).
Which charities can I support?
Donations can be made to any national/local charity or recognised good cause such as schools and scout groups.You might choose to donate to BT’s own charitable initiative, the BT Supporters’ Club, which seeks to transform the lives of young people through sport. Or you could choose to support one of our charity partners; Comic Relief, BBC Children in Need, ChildLine or Disasters Emergency Committee. Some people choose to support local causes like churches, hospices, schools or animal welfare schemes. Whatever charity you choose to support will receive more money through Payroll Giving than if you were to donate to them directly.
You can nominate more than one charity to benefit from your donations - and you can easily change the amount or nominated charities at any time. If your chosen charity is not listed on this site you can still support them but please include the charity number so there is no delay in forwarding on your donation.
