This Saturday is #SwansRedDay and the Sydney Swans are looking to raise at least $1 per person that walks through the SCG gates for Redkite. To help get things started, the Sydney Swans Foundation is kicking in $10,000 towards our goal.

So when you turn up to the SCG this weekend, you’re not just supporting your team, you’re also helping the Sydney Swans support children and young people living with cancer and their families.

To help us reach our target of $1 per person, make sure you keep an eye out for Redkite volunteers who will be bucket collecting around the grounds, collect your #SwansRedDay headband for a gold coin donation or donate directly to Redkite today HERE

Redkite and the Sydney Swans have been partners for 16 years and we need your help to raise as much money as possible for the amazing work they do in the community. Your attendance will have a direct impact on this donation – the more people in the crowd, the more money will be donated.

So join us for an afternoon footy frenzy, with our undefeated NEAFL side, featuring the returning Alex Johnson, taking on the Gold Coast Suns Reserves at 12.55pm, followed by Redkite’s Celebrity AFL 9’s match, and then the main game at 4.35pm.

Make sure you listen out at the time of the crowd announcement for the final donation amount.

All funds raised throughout the day will help Redkite support children and young people living with cancer and their families.
