THE PROBLEMThere are thousands of charities and social enterprises - how do you know which one to support?
How do you know where your money's going?
I don't have enough time to find out what's out there, let alone whether they're legit.
I'm not a millionaire so how can I make a difference?
OUR SOLUTIONWe are calling on local charitable organisations to pitch their charity to anyone who wishes to hear. Each charity or social enterprise has five minutes to pitch in the style of the popular UK television show "The Dragon's Den" and are then questioned by a special guest Dragon about their cause and business model.
After hearing the pitches, you choose the organisations you most want to support. Many people want to support all the charities or social enterprises so additional donations to the enterprises are welcomed!
We will be asking each person who is attending to buy a R100 ticket. Once we, the ticket buyers, have heard all the charties ideas we will decide where the money raised will go, through an anonymous vote. This means that not only will one lucky charity gain some much needed funding but we also have the opportnity to hear about and support other organisations throughout the rest of the year.
