LFC Foundation helps fund books for Bootle Children’s Literary Festival

The LFC Foundation helped to fund the cost of printing books for local youngsters at this year’s Bootle Children’s Literary Festival.

The club’s official charity was able to support children’s organisation YKids with a grant from its Community Fund to cover the costs of producing over 350 books.

Ykids has the aim of equipping young people for a life of opportunity through raising emotional and educational literacy.

The Community Fund, a scheme set up in aid of helping grassroots charities across Merseyside, was established using £100,000 raised from last year's LFC Foundation’s official Legends charity match against AC Milan at Anfield.
