Team Morobe still on fundraising
drive
TEAM MOROBE is embarking on a second
fundraising drive to raise the targetted amount of K300,000 to
adequately cater for Team Morobeís participation in the third
PNG Games in November.
Morobe Administration had provided K150,000 towards assisting
Team Morobe in its preparations and provincial administrator
Manasupe Zurenuoc will launch the fundraising drive tomorrow.
Team Morobe general manager Tokey Mambare said this week that he
was confident that they would meet the target before the games
start in November.
“We started our fundraising drive in Port Moresby last weekend
and the turnout was not good as expected. However, we are
expecting to hold a second fundraising drive in Port Moresby in
October to raise the balance,” Mambare said.
“We have sent invitation letters to business houses in Lae and I
appeal to them to come forward and pledge their support in cash
and in kind.”
Mambare said that they were also looking for an official
sponsorship of K100,000 from the private sector.
Meanwhile, another golf tournament fundraising drive will also
be held on Friday, Sept 28, at the Lae Golf Club. A fee of
K1,000 is levied at all the participating teams.
