After being a charity partner of Sports Interactive and featuring in the Football Manager, Sports Interactive have nominated War Child to hand over their front of shirt logo to.
Miles Jacobson, Sports Interactive’s Studio Director and War Child Ambassador, said: “We’re delighted to continue our main sponsor partnership with AFC Wimbledon and very proud to have been with the Club since their formation.
“Despite it being a year where we’ve changed our studio and game logos, our overriding feeling was that War Child needs the promotion for their work more than we do. That’s why we’ve handed over the front of shirt to their logo rather than ours.
“Children are more affected by war than anyone else, and being in a warzone is something that stays with them for longer than those of us who are older. There’s a lot of war in the world at the moment, not just those that we hear about on the news every night, but the forgotten conflicts across Africa, such as those in the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of Congo, and other parts of the world.
“The work War Child does is massively important in giving children support and a better life in conflict and post-conflict zones. I urge all of you to learn more about their work and how you can help.”
