SWEET LUKE O'NIEN
Luke O'Nien has shown his appreciation for the efforts made by the Foundation of Light during the unprecedented circumstances we find ourselves in. The Sunderland AFC star shared a very special video message praising the team at the football club's charity for their endeavours over the past few weeks in keeping everybody motivated. The Foundation of Light's reigning Community Champion made reference to supporting the vulnerable through our Extra Time Hub, delivering online courses to learners and volunteering services to Sunderland Foodbank. Watch his message below and you can also subscribe to the Foundation's official YouTube channel here.[embed]https://youtu.be/imqk_do2Ir8[/embed] How you can help Just £4 will help the Foundation to support an older person in the community by helping them stay active in their homes, delivering care packages to their doors and be a friendly voice at the end of a phone. £15 will help the charity teach a family how to cook on a budget using ingredients which are easily available to them through the charity’s Family Learning programme.
