The Purpose of C.A.I.
The C.A.I. Project will operate in two different ways. Firstly, C.A.I. will support the fund-raising events of many locally registered charities, by providing quality music groups at their own charity events. An example of this could be a quartet group, Jazz Ensemble, Rock-n-Roll group, Country Western or a choir or full orchestra etc., as appropriate. C.A.I. will apply for local authority funding to do this.
C.A.I. will also raise donations through memberships from the public, which will be held in the C.A.I. Trust fund. As the fund generates interest, this will be used to employ musicians at C.A.I. fund-raising events.
Monies raised will then be split as in the example below:
£1,000 raised at a fund-raising event.
£500 is divided between the charities represented by C.A.I. on a per ratio basis.
£500 would be divided in the same way through the C.A.I. Trust fund toward the same charity/s for more future fundraising concerts and for the inclusion of more musicians.
This will enable the C.A.I. Project to help other charities, and will build more funds to generate more interest, and will thus make C.A.I. become self-perpetuating.
In the words of Ruggiero Ricci: “As a Patron of C.A.I., I request that every effort be made to provide support So this programme may be a success.” Sarah Chang: “This Project is an absolutely wonderful idea that deserves support.”
