How can I get sponsorships for a sibling who is gifted at debates? I really need to help him....?

Question

As I mentioned last time here, I have a genius sibling who speaks so bombastically and can't even get down his pedestal even in simple conversations..actually he is an outstanding debater, he alaso adjudicates and trains debaters and conducts seminar for debaters in different state universities..he has soo much passion at debates that he has joined so many competitions and most of the time bringing home the bacon. He really excels at this! The problem is this is a continuous process and not all competetitions are subsidized by the school. He needs fundings and spnsorships from people who advocate such school activities....he needs financial support from people of good heart to continue this passion of his, after all he has been best speaker, best debater, and now training himself to adjudicate??How are we able to help him???Please help...

Answer 1

Most schools will offer tax credits to people who wish to set up an account for the debate club.  Unfortunately, tax credit monies must be tied into some academic club or classroom and not to an individual student.

But, you might also wish to invite a local newspaper reporter or ocal TV station to watch your brother in action.  They might be able to request donations in a kind way.

Have you checkd out any grant monies that might be out there?  It might be a longshot, but maybe somewhere there is a grant that can be used to finance debates.

Another longshot is to locate prominent people in the community and write heartfelt letters asking for donations to support your brother's passion.

Best of luck to you!
