$2000 LAST-MAN-STANDING DRAW!

I find the fund-raising aspect of this project quite challenging and so it generally gets pushed aside in the hope that the task will just disappear, but of course it doesn’t. It grows. Until finally there comes a time such as this where opportunity and need wonderfully collide and action simply must be taken.

Fact of the matter is we need your help to finalise the Mentawai cultural education booklet and dictionary (design and printing), commence the program, and complete the As Worlds Divide film. The opportunity is that for these three months – January to March 2016 – Globalquest are willing to donate $2 for every $1 raised for the Suku Mentawai project, which is quite outstanding behaviour.

I’ve since been racking my brain for fundraising ideas that may offer you a little more bang for your requested buck, so to speak, and thought it might be enjoyable – and quite entertaining – to offer tickets to a celebratory social event in exchange for your generosity. Basically, for each $50 you donate to the cause you will also be purchasing an entry ticket to an afternoon/evening of live music, feasting, festivities, prizes, and – thanks to our major sponsor Pitstop Hill Mentawai – a chance to walk away with $2,000 cash! Hooray.

The bar – serving beer, wine, spirits and cocktails – will open from 12pm and the draw will commence from 1pm. It will be a great day out in the country. See flyer for all other relevant details:
