CARLTON STARS + TELECHOICE HELP VINNIES RAISE IMPORTANT FUNDS FOR CHRISTMAS IN MELBOURNE 'S  CBD  
 
Carlton fans had a double-dose of Christmas today thanks to TeleChoice and Carlton players Andrew Carrazzo, Heath Scotland, Eddie Betts and Richard Hadley who appeared in-store at TeleChoice on Elizabeth St.

The Carlton players met fans and signed  autographs in exchange for gold coin donations which is to be donated to St Vincent de Paul Society this Christmas.

TeleChoice matched every donation dollar for dollar , along with a one off $500 donation,  to help St Vincent de Paul Society with their planned festive activities for the poor and homeless.

In addition to helping the disadvantaged this Christmas, fans had the chance to walk away with a once-in-lifetime memento, with Andrew, Health, Eddie or Richard making personal voice recordings on mobile phones.

The AFL stars also signed  footballs, t-shirts and caps and will be helping out TeleChoice staff behind the counter during the busy lunchtime period.

TeleChoice is the official ball sponsor of the Carlton Football Club .
