New York City FC has announced the return of its Group-wide global charity initiative, Cityzens Giving, and is calling on fans to pledge their support. The initiative funds community soccer projects run by young people, created to tackle pressing issues affecting their communities including crime prevention, girls’ empowerment and disability inclusion.
For the fourth year, fans of CFG’s family of clubs – including New York City FC, Manchester City and Melbourne City FC – will decide how a $500,000 charitable fund is split by voting for one of six causes that inspires them the most. The more votes a project gets, the more funding it will receive.
