Deportivo Municipal launches 'Thousand Sponsors' T‑shirt fundraiser

Club Centro Deportivo Municipal, a Lima‑based team now playing in Peru's fourth division, faced mounting debt after three consecutive relegations. In January the club introduced an unprecedented financing drive, selling individual spots on a special T‑shirt for 200 Peruvian soles (about €51.76). The campaign, dubbed “Los Mil Sponsors del Muni”, quickly attracted 1,000 sponsors from Peru and abroad. A pre‑sale price of €30.85 (119.20 soles) was set, available only until 07:00 on 16 August. The worldwide interest, including orders from collectors in Europe and Asia, is helping the club meet its financial obligations and avoid further collapse.
