Big Hearted Bears Day is Back

Thu 10th August 2017

Big Hearted Bears Day will take place this season on August 19 at Rangers match versus Hearts at Ibrox.

Now in its second year, Big Hearted Bears Day aims to highlight to fans the work the Foundation does on behalf of the Rangers Family and to help raise more funds so we can continue being a force for good.

As well as celebrating the work of the Foundation the day is also a chance to celebrate the generosity of the supporters as thanks to their backing the Foundation has been able to do more than ever over the last season

There will be plenty happening for everyone on Big Hearted Bears Day inside and outside the Stadium.

Before the match volunteers and matchday programme sellers will be selling Big Hearted Bears pin badges priced just £2. 

Our Memorabilia Stall will also be back due to popular demand. Set up in front of the Megastore around an hour and a half before kick-off we will be selling signed pictures, programmes and other goodies from the Foundation’s store cupboard as well as items from fans who have generously made donations to us. 

Be sure to get yourself there early to bag a bargain then keep an eye out for our volunteers handing out leaflets telling you how to enter our brilliant free prize draw to win a signed Rangers shirt.

For a bit of fun, there will also be opportunities to get your photograph taken in our ‘I am a Big Hearted Bear’ photo frame and be sure to get your hands on a matchday programme as it will have a feature celebrating the Foundation’s work.

Inside the ground there will be more badge sellers and there will even be a special charity pie on sale at the kiosks.

Before the match, look out for the Rangers players warming up on the pitch in Foundation T-shirts, and listen out for the story of our Foundation flag bearer.

At half-time, cast your eyes up to the big screens to watch the stories of just some of the people the Foundation has supported who will then walk out onto the pitch.

Of course, Big Hearted Bears Day would not be possible without the support of our amazing volunteers, so if you can spare a few hours before kick-off to help out please get in touch on 0141 580 8775 or email rangerscharity@rangers.co.uk.  We’re looking for around 100 Big Hearted Bears to support us on the day by selling pin badges or helping at one of our stalls.
