New logo chosen!
We've adopted a new logo. Our pro bono marketing man Holrick Rodgers is putting it together for us - it's an amalgamation of Abene Karantaa trustee Rachel Coleshill's design and Holrick's designer's. I'll show it here as soon as I can, in the next few days.
We're very proud to have a logo soon. Another step in the right direction. But we're not losing sight of what we're doing this for. In fact coming up with a brief and designs has helped us focus our minds further on what we're all about. And coinciding with putting a 2-year plan together we're clearer about where we are going and how we can achieve our objectives of community development in Senegal.
It's a very exciting time to be involved with the planned start of year 1 projects just around the corner. We're still looking for funding to ensure we can deliver. Please take a look at the website to see how you can give your support.

Time to choose a logo and work with the US Peace Corps
It was great to see the designs for the Abene Karantaa logo that Holrick Rodgers put forward yesterday. One good one based on African textile designs. But the best in my opinion you'll hopefully get to see soon! I'll keeping you waiting till we make a decision on it. It's a teaser!
I'm going to email the trustees later with the final shortlist of logos for their opinion.
It's all coming together. I had a call yesterday from Margaret from the US Peace Corps in Senegal, giving me further information on one of their volunteers coming to work with us on the projects from January. We're all really excited about collaboration with the Peace Corps. They run two programmes in the area - the Urban Agricultural Program and the Small Enterprise Development Program.
We're hoping to have volunteers from both programmes working with us on a Business Skills training project and in the Community Co-operatives that will be producing fruit and vegetables for sale.

Logo on the way and funding bid coming along
Holrick Rodgers, our pro bono marketing man and Olwyn Rutter (joining us from across the pond in Canada) are getting to work on a new logo for Abene Karantaa. Working on the brief from Holrick has really focused me mind as to where we are going and the image we should portray; as well as who we should target. A good experience. It's an exciting project and I can't wait to see what both teams come up with.
A rap on the knuckles for me this morning for not cc-ing Rachel in to the emails that have put Holrick and Olwyn in touch. Three heads will hopefully be even better than two!
Rachel is putting up an advert of our imminent fundraiser garage sale (on Sunday 16th - see www.abenekarantaa.org/garagesale on Facebook as we speak. And on Gumtree too. She'll be helping me manage the swathes of supporters eager to support us in exchange for a silk cushion or coffee table book.
I'm working hard this morning on putting together a funding bid for a trust that I hope will be supporting us in the future and playing a key part in the success of the projects. Following my meeting with the Chief Executive of Beatbullying on Tuesday, I am incorporating lots of good points she raised.
Wish us luck!
