Toyota AFL Good for Footy
The Good for Footy program is a grassroots initiative, allowing Toyota Dealers to give back to their local communities by providing financial support for their local football clubs and with the tour, provide a once-in-a-lifetime experience for fans.
As part of this initiative, metropolitan and regional Toyota Dealers support local clubs through sponsorship and other promotional activities. Funding goes to a variety of club requirements such as improving grounds, renovations of club rooms, training equipment, uniforms, medical supplies and improving the overall playing and training environment for the club.
The program began in 2005 across Victoria and Southern New South Wales. The success of the Good for Footy program has also led to its expansion into Tasmania. So far, more than 130 local football clubs have benefited from this program, receiving over $1.7 million dollars between them thanks to Toyota Dealers across the states.
Back by popular demand, the 2011 Toyota Good for Footy Tour will visit regional Victoria and Southern New South Wales towns and host footy clinics for young fans. Packed with AFL superstars including Jack Watts (Melbourne), Lindsay Gilbee (Western Bulldogs) and Patrick Dangerfield (Adelaide) as well as former stars Brian Taylor, Danny Frawley, Matthew Richardson and Brad Johnson, the tour is a highlight of the Good For Footy program each year.
