HI Arwin,
Since we have a great Brazilian Band in India, I brought them to Goa to
perform in aid of the Brasil Futebol Academia in Goa, which is basically
supported by Beto of Dempo and Barreto of Mohun Bagan, both Brazilian
footballers. They give a percentage of their large earnings as the basic
support to the academy.
The academy trains Goan boys in football, and they are doing yeoman service
to us. Today, there was a lovely article of how their effort means that 2
Goan boys will go to Brazil for training, besides the 135 others they train
in Goa.
100% of the proceeds of the show on the 15th will go to them, and I am doing
my own bit with friends to recover the costs. I am requesting you to send
money, NOT FOR ME, but directly to the Academia so that we can augment the
monies that they get.
Would be great if you can do your bit from Dubai, and I leave it to you as
to how much you can egg people from there to give.
Over here, business men are giving money, and the support to the show too is
very good. We will go full.
The link attached is of the events page of the show. We had a great press
conference yesterday, and the media is excited as to what we are doing. I
will give you wide publicity as "support from goans in dubai, to football in
goa" and we can also announce individual names if you so desire. The names
can also go on our very popular website.
NDTV and other TV stations are covering the event, and i have the special
correspondent of the International Indian magazine based in Dubai, who will
cover the event too.
Wide reach, we need all of us to be together in this. Do your best, this
could be great moment for all of us to get togehter to do things together.
God bless you,
Armando
P.S. I will ask for the account number of the academy so that you can send
money directly to them/. In this way, no one will doubt that i am trying to
get money for the cost of the show. We have to be honest, and we have to be
seen to be honest too!
