The Foundation will be primarily funded through a yearly contribution from Oakland International. The main beneficiaries of the Oakland Foundation will be children under the age of 16 and their families from the surrounding

areas, living in conditions that would be considered below the poverty line. There is an extensive range of criteria that Trustees will have to assess before selecting applicants for funding. . These will include such things as what support they are already receiving (and whether that is enough) or the free activities that available to them within their communities e.g Parks, youth centres, free sport training.

Football and sport should be accessible to every child, regardless of their familyโ€™s circumstances and this funding will allow us to provide places and meals for children who may otherwise miss out.

The summer holidays can be challenging for families, and we want to ensure local children still have somewhere positive to go, where they can stay active, build confidence and simply enjoy their summer.โ€
