Bayern Munich revealed that it has launched a process to recycle thousands of scarves and produce non-medical face masks (masks) and sell them to the public, with the proceeds allocated to a charitable program launched by two team players to combat the repercussions of the Corona virus.
"One of our main concerns is to make positive contributions during the current crisis in light of the outbreak. The decision to reuse the materials for Bayern scarves has been done in another good thing," board member Jörg Wacker said on Friday.
Scarves prepared for the 120th anniversary of the club were scheduled to be distributed during a match against Chelsea in the Champions League last month, but all competitions were suspended in light of Coruna's outbreak. If the match is held at a later time, it is likely to be without an audience.
The club decided to allocate the proceeds from the sale of masks to the charitable "Norkel Corona" program launched by Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretska, the players of the Bavarian team, which amounted to nearly four million euros so far.
