MOVING FORWARD

Dear friend and supporter of Rockies Organization, 

We want to thank you in a very special way for standing with us. After schools opening and having all our beneficiaries going back to school, we also had to resume our weekly performances, because this is where we get revenue for our sustainability. It is not yet easy due to the fact that it is a lanten period, but also people have been used to staying home over weekends than moving out to watch performances and be entertained. Social Media and televisions are becoming an alternative to them, which is a threat and challenge to us live performers. We are thinking through the best approach in this line, and if you have any insights to share with us, you are most welcome.  

Moving forward, we decided to resume our family performances every Sunday, though the turn-up is still very low, it is all about persistance and quality work.

We also launched a fundraising drive in February to roof a shelter at our Academy, to give space to more youth to practice and find their potential. We were able to collect USD500 and the total amount needed is USD2000. We still have a deficit of USD1500. Any contribution towards this accomplishment will be highly appreciated. We shall name this shelter after our very own Viktoria, who has contributed so much to the young people at Rockies. 

Since the schools opened, the training of trainers has been going on. We are now planning to take performing arts to schools, to help the students have holistic eductation using performing arts. Any support, guidance, materials to help us deliver well this program to schools, is much appreciated.  

Thank you again for your kindness and the support you always give to us.

Sincerely,
