The entire city of Wrexham is a place to be after their promotion push. They are all together in their pursuit of reaching the English Premier League, the holy grail of English soccer. Two people who are the architects of that push were Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. They saved the club from extinction and made shrewd investments to improve it. Out of those passionate lads in the ranks, Paul Mullin is the star forward who helped them to receive a promotion. More than being a sensational player, he is also a wonderful human. 

Earlier, Mullin had opened up on how the doctors diagnosed his son with autism. At that crucial moment, Ryan stepped in to help Mullin as he acknowledged that moment. Therefore, Mullin has stepped up and joined a fan fundraiser for the autism charity.

The Wrexham striker has joined Fearless in Devotion to raise funds for the club’s Your Space charity. During the club’s promotion game against Boreham Wood, where Mullin scored, a fan Jordan Birchall took an iconic photograph. They produced A4 and A3 prints of that photo. Likewise, the initial sell-out of over 200 photos saw the equivalent percentage of Paul Mullin’s league goals this season (38%) donated to the Autism charity. They have raised over $1256 for Your Space, where Paul remains a sponsor.

Moreover, Mullin signed a limited number of A4 and A3 printers, around 38 of them which is a similar amount of goals he scored in the league. They will donate 100% of sales to charity following the sale. One can buy these pictures worldwide via the online Fearless in Devotion shop. It is just mesmerizing to see Mullin involved in the charity part of the club, apart from scoring goals. According to Nation. Cymru, Mullin explained why he believed in charity after his son’s diagnosis.
