Celtic FC Foundation launches new Holiday Home project

Thanks to previous fundraising initiatives, Celtic FC Foundation is delighted to announce the launch of its new Holiday Home project.

The funding has helped the Foundation to purchase a holiday home at Wemyss Bay Holiday Park which will provide free of charge holidays, to families and individuals who otherwise could not afford one, offering a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The luxury caravan is fully equipped with everything required for a stress-free getaway, with entertainment passes and access to the onsite football pitch, play area, and swimming pool.  Celtic FC Foundation is also providing their guests with food and essentials so that there is no financial barrier for those visiting.

Their holiday home will also provide much-needed respite for families or individuals who are experiencing illness, providing care for their loved ones or have just come through a stressful period in their lives.

“This holiday home will allow us to offer many families in our communities a chance to have a break with their children. (…)“It’s only possible because of the generosity of our supporters and partners across the world, and we are very grateful to everyone who has contributed. (…)“Like the Sensory Room, we know that demand will be exceptionally high to have access to this holiday home, and we’re looking forward to having the first family in next month.”

Tony Hamilton, Celtic FC Foundation Chief Executive

Money raised from the New York Gala Dinner has supported Celtic FC Foundation in the development and running costs of this key project, helping to make a massive difference in the lives of so many.
