Do you run a business? Are you interested in cricket? Would you like to be a nice organisation, support cancer research, meet a few cricket journalists and bloggers, and have a whole heap of fun at the same time?
If your answer is yes to most of the above, then do we have an opportunity for you!
The Village Cricketer, and its Australian arch-nemesis Cricket with Balls, are looking for corporate sponsorship around the Pre-Ashes international charity cricket match they will contest in aid of the Everyman Male Cancer Campaign in June.
We are seeking corporate assistance in three areas:
- A headline sponsor for the event
- Shirt sponsorship for both sides
- Corporate donations to the charity (which can be made at http://www.justgiving.com/thevillagecricketervcricketwithballs)
We have had significant interest in the event to date, with a number of cricket’s finest journalists keen to participate, as well as a whole bunch of cricket bloggers. We are confident that an event of this nature, held in the run up to the Ashes and as part of Everyman Male Cancer Awareness Month, would provide any organisation aligning itself with the event with significant PR opportunities, in addition to knowing that they have contributed to a very worthy cause, helping fund research to cross out prostate and testicular cancer.
If you are interested and would like to discuss further, you can get in touch by leaving a comment, or by emailing thevillagecricketer@googlemail.com.

I know chap who might help – he’s in the finance industry, bit of a philanthropist I’m told. American chap, name of Stanford?

No cards are easy to get approved for anymore. Consumer credit lines have now been cut by over $2.5 Trillion (last week’s figures, thru end-July). Credit lines are being reduced or eliminated entirely. New credit is not being extended unless you have excellent credit.
If you can get a new credit card application approved, the amount of the credit limit will depend on your income and amount of credit currently available to you.
