Donation Request Policy

The Sydney Roosters believe as an elite sporting organisation it is our responsibility and commitment to play an active role within the community. We place a huge emphasis on providing support to the community and assist a variety of not for profit and charitable organisations through awareness and fundraising activities, with donations of signed memorabilia, complimentary tickets, player appearances and other club assets. The Sydney Roosters are inundated with donation requests from many worthy charities, schools, sporting organisations, individuals and other community groups. Unfortunately, we are unable to help every person or group with their requests. Please note:

• The Sydney Roosters DO NOT fulfil personal requests for signed memorabilia
• The Club does not accept any merchandise, for charity or otherwise, sent to the Club for signing. All items will be returned unsigned.
