Good day Big Favour.
We an a new NPC non-profit company based in the INK area which is Inanda, Ntuzuma and Kwa Mashu.
We help young upcoming artists with organising events for them, help them see art as business.
We give them hope that they can use their talent to stay away from drugs and also use their talent to bring changes to their lives and homes.

There was the whole Covid 19 situation then we had the looting.
To make things worse we had floods , this has not been easy for "unknown" artists.
Already they have been struggling before these incidents , they have made things worse for them.

We have been doing events and hiring sound for quite lot of money and it's the money we don't have.
So we NEED a Big Favour, we need an event sound system, it doesn't have to be new as long as it works.
We need to make sure we nurture our talent and we keep our kids off substance abuse.
Trust this can be something it can be done.
Thank you very much.
