Ferencvárosi Torna Club provide food for the Heroes

In a joint action by Ferencvárosi Torna Club and Lagardère Sports Hungary Kft., food will be delivered to the heroes of the Saint László Hospital.

Ferencvárosi Torna Club pays tribute to the strenuous work of all health care workers, doctors, and nurses who fight against the threat of coronavirus. Social responsibility plays an important role in the life of the club, and so, they have been trying to help those in need and those who are fighting to overcome this pandemic.

In March, FTC executives, footballers, coaches of the first team, and members of the professional staff offered HUF 15 million to the Foundation for Patients, Doctors and Employees of St. László and St. István Hospital.

This initiative was later joined by the leaders, athletes, and staff of FTC’s hockey, handball, and water polo sections, who each offered HUF 5 million. In total, 15 million was donated to the Uzsoki Utcai Hospital’s Foundation of Mobility, to help fight the threat of the virus.

In their latest initiative, as a joint action, Ferencvárosi Torna Club and Lagardère Sports Hungary Kft. (operator of Groupama Arena) will be helping the extraordinary work and struggle that takes place in the close vicinity of the stadium. Starting from the 8th of April, they will deliver 140 servings of breakfast and lunch each day from the kitchen of Groupama Arena to the employees, the heroes of Saint László Hospital.

The catering partner of the stadium, Eventrend Kft., will prepare and deliver the lunch to the hospital, and Pek-Snack Kft. will provide breakfast.

The club believes that in these difficult times collaboration is most important, so with this extra help, they want to support the ongoing, heroic struggle of health workers.
