Sponsorship
Circumnavigation
The WRF is "apolitical". We are forming a syndicate for the sponsorship of a boat to undertake a circumnavigation of Australia and its adjoining islands, with a view to:
- promoting the World Reforestation Foundation (WRF) and its objectives
- promoting the Stroke Association
- promoting Stem Cell Research
The Boat would be a sailing boat, with accommodation
for 7 + Skipper on board. It would undertake the circumnavigation from
Brisbane. A wooden boat would be a preferred option to other alternatives.
You must consider the fuel that goes into creating some of the alternatives.
Contrary, as opposed to popular belief, wooden boats in great condition
are easy to upkeep.
The sponsors for the Boat would be of two types:
1.) They could become a MAJOR SPONSOR by contributing to the cost the
Boat, giving all the signage rights and all rights to our WRF Logo on
their stationary.
2.) They could become MINOR SPONSOR by sponsoring people to come on
board during a trip, ( for a period of time - being up the sponsors).
The cost per day, is yet to be established. This will give all rights
to WRF Logo on their stationary.
A third person comes in to the equation, which is Private
individual who wishes to make his/her contribution available to the
WRF. It depends what the licensed facilities are with regards to private
people. Insurance will have to be taken whatever. For the project to
be viable, we need to make the Boat self-sufficient and pay all the
expenses.
I would still make my speeches to the interested parties, even going
up-country to get my message across. The Antivap and Eco Bag, would
be very well received in many areas. When the weather is unsuitable
to voyage by sea, we will be going into the "Outback" to get the message
to the farmers and pastoralists. Outback journeys would also require
sponsorship and extra people to assist.
I have prepared speeches on topics such as the world shortage of water and life after a stoke. Any persons or organizations requiring a ‘Key Note’ speaker on either or both, should contact me.
If you are able to assist please contact me.
