From as little as £10 per month, supporters can sign up to become a Friend of CACT and help the Trust continue to deliver life-changing programmes in health improvement, education, youth engagement and inclusion across South East London and Kent.
To recognise the generosity of supporters, a series of tiered benefits will be available depending on the level of monthly donation.
- From £10 per month: Supporters will receive a CACT pin badge, welcome letter with message from Nathan Jones and quarterly newsletters with updates on the Trust’s work. The first 100 Friends who sign up also have the chance to win one of 10 places for a training ground experience.
- From £40 per month: As well as all of the bronze benefits, supporters will be invited to a Friends of CACT Day each season to see the Trust’s work first hand. All silver level friends will also receive an entry into a draw to attend the annual CACT Awards at the House of Lords with a guest.
- From £100 per month: This tier includes all of the bronze and silver benefits, plus a guaranteed invite to the annual CACT Awards at the House of Lords and training ground experience and will also receive an entry into a draw to attend a match as a guest of CACT in the 1905 Lounge.
CACT CEO, Jason Morgan, said: “Friends of CACT gives supporters the chance to play a direct role in sustaining and expanding our work. Every donation, whether it’s £10 or £100, helps us reach more people and deliver more programmes that change lives.
“Your generosity will continue to support the diverse work delivered by CACT and we’re extremely grateful to those who continue to help make a difference.”
Meanwhile, Addicks Men's First-Team Manager, Nathan Jones, has given his support to the initiative, saying: The Community Trust does unbelievable work. It is a wonderful facet of our football club that changes people's lives and another reason why this club is a great place to be.
"You as fans pay a massive part of that. I encourage supporters to sign up if they can. With regular donations, we can continue the great work that CACT continue to do in a groundbreaking way."
Between 2024-25, CACT delivered programmes supporting more than 28,000 people, from young people in education to adults improving their health and wellbeing, as well as projects promoting mental health, social inclusion and equality.
