Aim

Help us Sell Before We Dai. We need donations to keep fighting for Reading FC's future. Please support our cause so we can continue to fight


Help us Sell Before We Dai

The campaign has been live for almost 7 months now and we've achieved so much… National media attention on our plight, cross party political support and engagement from you, the fans.

So far the campaign has been funded with a small start up fund from Supporters' Trust at Reading (STAR) alongside the wider Sell Before We Dai (SBWD) campaign team using their own money.

As you can imagine, this isn't a viable long term solution. We need to ensure we can carry on with the campaign until Dai Yongge has sold, and to do that, we need donations to help our cause.

We've intentionally set an initial target for this fundraiser of £500. This enables us to access funding once the target has been reached to support the march. We do however, intend to continue fundraising beyond this initial target. 

All donations will be deposited into a separate SBWD bank account (managed by STAR) to support the campaign.

What will the money be used for?

Right now, our focus is to ensure we are fully prepared to run the 28th October march successfully - we will need to purchase merchandise e.g. banners, printing materials, leaflets. 

Frankly, none of us know what lies ahead. Going forward, we may need to raise funding to pay for specialist legal or property advice, or for further protest action.

Funds will always be used responsibly,  and we have governance processes in place to ensure this happens.

If you're able to donate to the campaign, that would be fantastic. We appreciate times are hard, so genuinely any donation, even one pound, will help.

To reiterate, this is a 'not-for-profit' campaign. All of the campaign team volunteer their time for free. No one takes any kind of salary or benefit.

If we get to a place where the campaign ends and monies are left in the fund, all excess funds will be donated to the Reading FC Community Trust as agreed when SBWD was formed.

Thanks for reading and thanks for your wonderful support. We will get our Reading FC back.
