Invest in a magic carpet…
Help create safe and fair employment for young people in war-torn Afghanistan. By backing ATF’s Afghan Action project you’ll be helping provide training, loans and skills to enable young trainees to weave beautiful carpets and create their own business opportunities.
What are you pledging?
Buzzbank is not yet operational – so you are pledging your potential interest in contributing to this venture at a latter stage. You are not obliged in any way to commit any funds at this stage, nor are you confirming any future obligation.
Once Buzzbank is up and running, target for soft/beta launch Autumn 2010, we will send you an email to let you know and you can choose, after reading the relevant background project information and terms and conditions, to make a payment (we hope you will!).
We are doing this to gauge interest in The Afghan Training Foundation and their crowd-funding offer before launch. We hope it is as exciting to you as it is for them and would be happy to hear any feedback, ideas or contributions on how we could help make it better. Do send us your feedback to hello@buzzbank.org.
Our target is £20,000
To date we have raised £30!
