Reece James joins Marcus Rashford’s food charity drive, plans to deliver 19 million meals by end of 2020

Chelsea right-back Reece James has donated £10,000 to a London food charity with the aim of raising £100,000 by December.

The 20-year-old has joined Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford in the fight to end hunger.

According to the Daily Mail, the England international has been working with the Felix Project – a charity that delivers surplus food to those in need of it in the capital.

He has pledged a five-figure sum to the organisation in his bid to tackle food poverty.

It has also been claimed that James is hoping to raise ten times the amount he has pledged before his 21st birthday on December 8.

The Mail state that the ex-Wigan loanee is launching a fundraising page to help the charity. They aim to deliver a whopping 19 million meals by the end of 2020.
