An appeal for support to Gigaquit Online news gathering

For Gigaquit Civic Club
November 14, 2009

Gigaquit Online was launched in August 2007. So it has been operating for around 2 years already as of this month. It survived through the sheer efforts and sacrifices of the members of the Gigaquit Civic Club and volunteers. We cannot thank enough the efforts of the latter whose valuable assistance made Gigaquit Online interesting to browse and read.

Now we wish to improve better and bring more details and stories especially from the barangays. Though we continue to count on our volunteers, we deemed it necessary in our experience to have some funds necessary for the mobility of our "news reporters". We appeal therefore for your kind financial assistance. For a start, we target a budget of P2,000 a month in the form of donations and advertising fees. This amount will be used mostly for transportation and some snacks of our news gatherers. Of course, we welcome any news volunteer who will come forward and who is willing to shoulder any incidental costs that may be incurred.

You are very much welcome to post advertisements here in our website for a very affordable fee. We would like to help those who help us by way of announcing any of their concerns or business promotions.

Thank you very much and looking forward to receiving your positive reply.

Regards to all GOL readers!
