CASHCADE!
Dee 4 Life reached a significant milestone last night in their quest to purchase shares in Dundee when their fund-raising drive breached the £100,000 barrier (writes John Brown).
And, proving that “every penny counts”, it was a “pile of pennies” which took the fund to this position.

Perth schoolboy Jordan Clark (10) has been saving some of his pocket money every week, and any odd change was put in a jar.

When the Tulloch PS pupil counted the content, he was astonished to find it was over £100 — and immediately contacted Dee 4 Life to arrange for the donation to be passed over.

Trust official Scott Glenday said, “We were gobsmacked by young Jordan’s donation, but even more so when we were told his £100 had, in fact, taken us through the £100,000 barrier.

“This proves what we’ve known all along — every penny counts, and fans can donate anything, however small, to the fund. We would urge fans to continue with their efforts.”
