Foundation of Light is teaming up with Great Annual Savings Group to bring Sunderland AFC supporters the 2017-18 English Football League fixtures first.
The Black Cats kick off the new EFL Championship season over the weekend Friday 4th to Sunday 6th August facing the likes of Aston Villa, Fulham, Hull City, Middlesbrough and Sheffield Wednesday in the battle for promotion to the Premier League.
The Foundation's 'Fixtures Breakfast' gives the charity's Corporate Members and Supporters the chance to discover the Black Cats' EFL schedule live in the company of special guests including BBC Sport commentator Guy Mowbray, Sky Sports presenter David Jones and Kevin Maguire, Associate Editor of the Daily Mirror.
Held at the Hilton Garden Inn on the morning of Wednesday 21st June, the event will be hosted by BBC Look North presenter Jeff Brown.
Foundation of Light will be offering supporters the chance to win an exciting range of prizes including the new SAFC home shirt a week before its release.
Seaham-based Great Annual Savings Group has helped thousands of companies save money on their running costs and is supporting the event as part of a package which also includes sponsorship of the Foundation's annual Race Day in August.
We are proud to support this year's Fixtures Breakfast and welcome the start of the new football season. Fixtures release day is always an exciting time for any football supporter and we can't wait to see how Sunderland AFC kick off the upcoming campaign.

Richard Hopper, Head of Commercial at Foundation of Light, added: "Fixtures Breakfast is one of our most popular events due in no small part to the calibre of guests who have joined us in recent years.
"We are delighted to welcome Guy, David and Kevin who will give their expert opinions on SAFC's 2017-18 season.
"We would also like to thank everyone at Great Annual Savings for supporting Fixtures Breakfast for helping us host what will be a fantastic event."
