Supporting Whisper Poetry
Our Club now active for 13 years has trained thousands of young writers in the writing of Poetry. We also give them exposure by publishing their work. (We cater for five (5) categories which is Poetry; Short Stories; Art; Photography and Music. We also try to obtain Scholarships for our young under privileged young people of Africa. It costs about $ 7500 per year to do this for students. (Coaching; competitions;publishing; awarding prizes;printing books and cutting DVDs etc).
We by way of the need to continue have been prompted to turn to Indiegogo for the community to assist us. I have funded this from my personal funds (About $ 75000.00) over this period. The club is now threatened with closure if sponsor/s cannot be found.
The though of closure reaches deep into my heart. We have diverted suicides, developed writers and managed to get one student a scholarship in the U S A. The thought of closure is painful and will be a Huge disappointment to the thousands of young people all over Africa.
The community can help by donating to this cause which is at a cost of $ 7500 per annum. This means 300 donors at $ 25.00 per year. Companies who are passionate about developing these very talented under privileged children can help support what we feel to be a GREAT cause
The club will gladly make available the annual expenditure on how this will be spent to each donor.
THE CLUB HAS NO FUNDS HENCE WE CANNOT PAY ANY PROFESSIONAL FUND RAISERS. IT WOULD BE GOOD IF FUND RAISERS COULD DO THE FUND RAISING AS THEIR CONTRIBUTION.
