“Frontline workers around the world have heroically responded to the immediate threat of COVID-19. We have been privileged to play our own small part in helping to address that immediate threat,’’ Said Ferran Soriano, CEO City Football Group.
“Now is the time for us to look forward, committing to meeting our responsibility to help our communities recover.
‘’This multi-faceted campaign is going to use our expertise, our facilities, our platform and our voice to help people and our communities to heal and recover. And we will do it together. We are calling on our global community of Cityzens to help us to give and to help as many people as we can to recover.”
