Highlanders Football Club is appealing for funds to purchase a laptop for its chief executive officer (CEO) Ronald Moyo.
The appeal was made through a letter written by the club’s secretary Morgan Dube, dated 5 July 2022, and addressed to diaspora Highlanders members. It reads:
The club wishes to buy a laptop for the chief executive officer.
Given our current financial predicament, we are unable to raise enough funds to buy the laptop.
You can donate using the following means: Send to your family member home and ask to come to the Highlanders office and donate on your behalf.
They will be issued with a club receipt upfront.
The letter said donations can also be sent to club treasurer Busani Mthombeni via World Remit, MoneyGram or Western Union, and his South African details are given.
Dube said all donations will be publicised and captured in the official club records.
Speaking to Chronicle, Dube said the letter circulating on social media is meant for Highlanders members only, and not for outsiders
