some help
hi everybody, apologies for this letter of appeal and i realise many of you may find this geographically irrelevant but i am pulling out all the stops!
I have been working for around a year with a young lad at The Amber Foundation; a residential centre for vulnerable young people in the UK. I discovered him when I did a weeks workshop teaching through "Circomedia" (a circus and theatre school). It was apparent then that he was physically very talented, very bouncy and had great potential as a performer.
He decided recently that he would like to audition for Circomedia, which he did last week and to his utter delight was offered a place. This is of great significance as he had been homeless etc for most of his adult life (he is 26) and had no prospects for the future. However in his year at Amber he overcame many challenges and his self-esteem and desire to succeed has grown considerably.
In order to do the course he needs to raise £1800, and I am helping him in any way that I can.
If anyone could contribute in any way towards this fee, or perhaps has information on charities or funding bodies we could apply to please could you email me as soon as is humanely possible??? The course starts in 3 weeks so we are on a record breaking short time to make this happen....
You can call me at home (+44) 117 9515265 or on me mobile 07789 221169 or better still email me...
Many thanks
