Jermain Defoe and Sunderland announce Bradley Lowery Foundation donation from Doncaster tickets

Jermain Defoe has announced that £1 from every ticket sold for Sunderland's match at the weekend will go towards the Bradley Lowery Foundation.

The striker re-signed for Sunderland this week, having last played for Sunderland in 2017, the same year that Bradley Lowery died at the age of six due to neuroblastoma.

During his first stint at Sunderland, Defoe got to know Bradley and his family and was touched by the little boy's incredible bravery. Defoe helped the family to raise funds to try and get life-saving treatment. After Bradley died, the foundation was established to help other families.
