Donate to Salem Music Center- 3 Years Plan

Dear friends and supporters,

The Salem Music Center is a venture developing gradually thanks to the ongoing cooperation between its local Palestinians initiators, from the village of Salem near Nablus, the Israeli volunteers of the Villages Group, and donors from Israel and abroad (especially from Australia and the U.S).

The first stage of this project, based on a proposal submitted to you last year (check: http://villagesgroup.wordpress.com/2009/06/12/music-center-rquest-for-support/),

In order to keeps the momentum of this project going and to include in it many more children from the neighboring Villages of Salem and Dier al-Hattab, we hereby submit to you a new proposal for the Music Center. This proposal (see below) is based on the first one but seeks to enable the center to continue running for the next 3 years (2011-2013) and establish itself as the core of creative development for the children of these two villages.

In the following months, even before the hopeful implementation of this 3 years plan, we wish to start a process of cooperation between the new music center in Salem and a well established high school of arts in Tel-Aviv. The school`s principal and the head of its music department already visited the center in Salem and were deeply impressed by the progress of the pupils. We are now looking together for ways to form ongoing contacts between the school in Tel-Aviv and the developing center of Salem.

Reminder: The Villages is a small group of volunteers, which currently includes six Israelis and two Palestinians. Relying on 100% of volunteering work, our access to the big organizations and funds which demand much bureaucracy is very limited. It is our good fortune that we are backed, in many of our activities, by small organizations and individuals who grasp and understand the spirit of our group and its endeavors. The great potential of Salem music project is manifest and clear. This project was brought to life by the generosity of individuals and it needs your generosity in order to flourish and prosper. We are certain that it going to do so. For donations at any amount please contact : ksehud@gmail.com.
