We are looking for partners and sponsors for our 2012 film series!
ONE (SINGAPORE) envisions a just world where no one lives in poverty – be it overseas or here at home. As our supporters and members know, we’re dedicated to raising public awareness and taking concrete actions to create The World We Want and Make Poverty History. As part of this mission, ONE (SINGAPORE) is planning a 2012 film series! But we need your help to make it happen.
We would like to show the films at SINEMA, before it closes its doors at the end of May. The cost of screening a movie varies for each film, but there are two main components for an event: film rights and venue rental. The average cost per event is S$1500 – S$2k. While we can sell tickets, ticket revenue is not sufficient to recoup costs and ONE (SINGAPORE) does not have a budget to subsidise these events.
And that’s where you come in. Do you know of an organisation or company that would be interested in partnering with ONE (SINGAPORE) to sponsor the costs?
Please take a look at this proposal and share it with potential partners. You can also check out our list of proposed films.
Film Series Objectives
1. Raise public awareness and generate discussion about key issues related to The World We Want, the movement to Make Poverty History and the Millennium Development Goals
2. Promote community (bringing people together for discussion)
3. Plant the seeds for concrete action (discussants may decide to follow up on a project related to the movie)
4. Revenue generation. While this is not the primary goal, if a sponsor is covering costs, it may be possible to raise funds for ONE (SINGAPORE) or a MDG Fund beneficiary through ticket sales, membership registration and merchandise sales.
Please pread the word, support the cause and let’s get ready to go to the movies!
Together we can create The World We Want.
