The Flight Plan has raised nearly $700,000 towards the new High Performance Centre but is still well short of the $3 million fundraising target set for members and supporters.
To date, with the support of the Federal Government, AFL, Melbourne Airport, private benefactors, Coterie groups and the State Government, the club has raised almost $18 million of the overall $25 million project cost.
Essendon’s players have pledged their support for the club’s new High Performance Centre at Melbourne Airport by getting ‘ON BOARD’. Watch the players take part in a special video about their donation to the Flight Plan here on Bomber TV.
