Everton have donated £200,000 to a cancer treatment fund for Sunderland mascot Bradley Lowery.

The five-year-old has neuroblastoma and his family are trying to raise £700,000 for treatment in the United States.

Bradley led the teams out before Everton's 3-0 Premier League win on Monday and received a minute's applause from fans in the fifth minute.


Everton have also invited the Lowerys to the return fixture and will auction off signed shirts from the game.

There's been an anonymous £20k donation on there too! They reckon it's a footballer who wants to remain out of publicity.

 

Had a fiver to donate today and decided to split it between Bradley and Frankie, he's the little Newcastle fan who also needs to raise money for treatment. Problem is where Bradley's page allows donations as low as a pound. Frankie's fundraisers only accept a minimum of a £5. This default greed has annoyed me. Restricting the people with little from giving a little.

 

You should have put the fiver on Rackem's next fancied four, that way when you won (cos you defo will win), you'd have £6 to split between them both.

 

Still would be £2 short to donate to Frankie.

 

Done a small donation, wish the lad all the best.

Fair play to Everton for their gesture, have Sunderland put anything in?

 

Think this has been the downfall of a lot of kids who suffer similar to Bradley. When they've set up charitable donation pages they've put on minimum donations like a fiver or a tenner. Raised very little.

I donated £3 to Bradley's fund the other day - apparently some homeless fella donated 12p he found to it too - this is how you raise awareness - let everyone donate whether they have a pound or a thousand then more people will give you money.

Really hope it works out for him (and all of them to be fair. No kid deserves that)

 

Still no reply on me donating. Seems beggars can be choosers.
