So...its Sunday and yet again I am sat at my desk looking longingly out the window at the sunshine! However I won't let this stop me for long as I have many things on my list to do before Monday when I will be posting out my information/donation packs to you all!
So for now I must content myself with labeling Africa Goals promotional CD's, printing out millions of letters, copies of the budget and proposal. Not to mention starting my first blog - thanks to the advice of Gary and Sarah, my flatmates who listen to me waffle on about Africa Goal on an almost daily basis!
Its crunch time here at THLmedia headquarters. After weeks of hard work I am finally ready to start the bit I have been dreading...asking everyone I know to donate some of their hard earned money.
If I focus on the big picture too much its terrifying - I am asking a lot from you all I know but if I don't raise enough money it will be awful to let go of a project that I feel has so much potential to engage young people in Africa through football and touch on such a crucial subject as AIDS and HIV.
heyup tamara well done for setting up the blog... getting very close to trip time, i can't wait. good luck with the fundraising!

Is this a registered charity?
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous - no Africa Goal is not a registered charity and neither is THL Media. However both are working as non profit. All donations to THL Media go towards funding the filming of Africa Goal 2010. If we managed to sell the final product then the a percentage of the proceeds would go to paying the crew a minimal weekly wage for the 7 week shoot and the rest will go to an AIDS/HIV charity chosen by Africa Goal.
