Who are we?
We are Truro City Tornadoes under 16s and we're a grassroots football team playing in Truro, Cornwall.
Why are we crowdfunding?
The Cornish winter can be pretty brutal so we are hoping to raise enough money to buy all the kids a warm waterproof winter jacket to protect them from the elements.
How we’ll spend the money raised
We will use a local cornish sports retailer to purchase the jackets from. If any extra monies are left over hats and gloves will be purchased to keep in line with the winter theme!!
Community impact
Nobody likes the feeling of being wet and cold so I'm hoping that by raising enough money our young players can benefit of a morale boosting winter jacket.
