We are now on our 4th week of highlighting individual fundraisers! Please see SLIDE 2 to donate to @aseel_harara or visit tinyurl.com/paa-aseel1 to go directly to their page.
PLEASE let us know if you’ve donated as part of this campaign, so we can calculate how much we’ve managed to raise and encourage others to do the same! Our next fundraiser highlight will be on 10/10.
Last week, we were able to raise over £600 for @sawsa.n2017 ! We hope we can raise a similar amount this time around (receipts will be posted on Stories + in bimonthly financial reports). You can also check the campaign page to verify donations made directly through our network.
We recently launched our big Mutual Aid Initiative and are in the process of ‘matching’ families with bands as we go through these highlights. We are beginning to test this model and will hopefully have more to report soon! Our hope is that across the whole network & our comrades we can pair folks with consistent fundraising. We are also working on a GLOBAL PAA CALENDAR where you can also see where shows are happening in your neck of the woods to help raise money for our Highlights!
In the meantime, in order to gauge how effective these weekly campaigns are, we ask that if you choose to donate from seeing our campaign highlight, PLEASE drop us a message with the amount you donated so we can get a sense of how much we’ve helped to raise!
As usual, our fundraising these next two weeks from in-person events & online sales will go in part towards @aseel_harara. Please check out our new zine launched on Ko-Fi for another way to donate!
Remember: SOLIDARITY IS NOT CHARITY. give generously, give regularly! If you would like to be paired with a family to consistently fundraise for, message us and we will help set you up!
