RationalFX, the principal sponsor of Birmingham City, have donated their sponsorship rights to a local children’s charity for one of the Blues’ fixtures over Christmas.
A public vote on RationalFX.com selected Little Hearts Matter, a charity which supports children with half a working heart, to have their logo featured on the club’s shirt for the televised Championship encounter with West Ham on Boxing Day.
Rajesh Agrawal, the Chairman and CEO of RationalFX, was delighted to have given the opportunity to the charity to raise its profile and attract funding, particularly given its significance as a local group.
He said: “We are so pleased that RationalFX can support Little Hearts Matter this Christmas with what we hope will be a great opportunity for fundraising and publicity.
“The public has made a great choice - these children deserve everyone’s support and I must thank Birmingham City for supporting us in changing the logo for this match.
“RationalFX is still a small company, with just 50 staff. However we keep our overheads low and we’re growing fast with our new online money transfer web site, Xendpay.com.
“This gives us the privilege of being able to help this very worthy cause - which I do so on behalf of our staff.”
Birmingham currently sit 14th in the Championship table, losing 1-0 to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Monday night.
