| What is an Affinity group? PowerTel Resources Ltd. offers a fund raising
initiative, which applies easily to clubs of all sizes. Funds are raised through an
Affinity Group, i.e. a group of individuals with a common interest. There is a wide array
of affinity groups in existence, the most notable of which is SCOPE, the nations
sixth largest charity.
The concept is simple, an affinity group raises funds, by saving its members &
supporters money through subscribing to cheaper utilities & telecommunications. Fees
are not involved. In return, the members & supporters are happy in the knowledge that
they are giving financial support to the institution of their choice, whilst saving money
for themselves. |

income (based on 50 subscribing members/supporters) Most clubs could raise substantial income from this
fund raising initiative.
As a guide, the potential value to a club, could look like: -
