Help celebrate 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Eversheds Saladžius donates shirts.
Help celebrate 2010 World Cup in South Africa. This was the project Eversheds Saladžius recently participated in. We have pledged our support to Strip Amnesty, an initiative to send unwanted sport shirts to South Africa in advance of the World Cup in 2010. We have collected replica shirts of our favourite team which have become redundant as children and adults outgrow sizes and as clubs issue new season replica kits. Each “strip” was sent to charities in South Africa, such as The Teddy Bear Clinic which is the designated charity to our Johannesburg office, for onward distribution.
Moreover, for a couple of years already Eversheds Saladžius is a sponsor of the Lithuanian National Football Federation. Based on close relationship with the Federation we have invited them to participate in the initiative. As a result, the Lithuanian National Football Federation donated several shirts as a support to Strip Amnesty.
Mr Robertas Tautkus, Head of the Lithuanian National Football Team comments upon Eversheds initiative Strip Off, Help celebrate 2010 World Cup in South Africa day:
Lithuanian Football Federation is extremelly happy to support the initiative of its sponsor Eversheds Saladžius, a member of Eversheds International Limited. The iniciative that brings the spirit of the World Cup 2010 to all of mankind.
Lithuanian National Team though representing a rather small country played the games with most of the teams participants of the World Cup 2010. The Lithuanian National Football Team demonstrated persistance and good results during the matches played, what allows us to feel confident and proud of our local team.
We were very happy to become just a small part of this major corporate initiative.
