About the Foundation of Light

Proceeds from the Beacon are donated to SAFC's official charity, Foundation of Light. Over 20 years, the Foundation has supported over half a million people from across Sunderland, South Tyneside and County Durham by tackling some of the region's biggest challenges including, obesity, unemployment, anti-social behaviour and poor mental health.

Just £4 will provide a disabled child with specialist sport classes, whilst £10 helps the Foundation teach a family to cook healthy meals on a budget. Every pound you spend with us makes a real difference.
