Xavs raise funds for RSL with special ANZAC Appeal jumpers

Xavs raise funds for RSL with special ANZAC Appeal jumpers

Old Xaverians helped raise funds for the 2017 ANZAC Appeal by wearing specially-designed jumpers as part of the 100 Teams Community Football Program during their Round 2 clash against Old Melburnians.

Nominated by the Camberwell City RSL Sub-Branch, the Xavs will now sell or auction off the jumpers with 50% of the funds raised through the sale of the jumpers donated to the RSL Sub-Branch in support of the 2017 ANZAC Appeal and the other 50% going towards the club.

The objectives of the program are to:

  • Establish new, or strengthen existing, relationships between RSL Sub-Branches and local football clubs
  • Develop greater understanding of the work of the RSL within the community
  • Promote increased observance of the commemoration of ANZAC Day
  • Foster pride in the wearing of the traditional ANZAC Appeal logo on special commemorative jumpers
  • Promote and support veteran welfare through the RSL’s ANZAC Appeal

The day was a success for both the club and the ANZAC Appeal, with the Xavs defeating Old Melburnians by three points in a thriller at Sportscover Arena.
