The Foundation of Hearts are launching a new tribute kit to thank current owners and to entice more supporters to sign up.

The Heart of Midlothian strip will feature the name of every Foundation member, following on from a similar kit from the 2015/16 campaign.

Providing an update to Foundation members in an email, chairman Gerry Mallon wrote: “As a thank you to owners – and an incentive to others to become one – I’m delighted to let you know that we’ll shortly be announcing the launch of a new Foundation tribute kit which will feature the names of our owners.

“The previous tribute kit was a huge success and I’ve no doubt that this will be equally popular. More on this in the next couple of weeks – stand by!”

Mallon also praised everyone involved in the march along the Maroon Mile in the build-up to the recent pre-season friendly.

He wrote: “I’d like to thank everyone who helped to put together and attended the memorable Maroon Mile parade and the events around that day.

“The Foundation is central to the Maroon Mile project and seeing the wonderful refurbishment of the Haymarket war memorial (carried out by by FoH volunteers), then the parade with thousands of supporters, led by 150 pipers and drummers, highlighted our and the club’s close links to our community.

“We look forward to working closely with the club, supporters, and the local community on the developments around the Maroon Mile scheme over the coming months. With the momentum created by last Saturday’s event, I know that the impact of this initiative will be profound.”
