All the profits from the sale of the limited edition shirts will be donated to Sporthilfe.The campaign was launched at the weekend at the ‘Sports Ball’ by Andreas Jung (Bayern Munich board member) and Thorsten Langheim (section head of Group Corporate Development at Deutsche Telekom). A seven square metre giant shirt signed by a large number of VIPs will publicise the campaign over the coming weeks.
