film project

Dear Every one,
I am starting up a film project about How to prevent child abuse in my country. Probably i would like to make it more international so that it could help ever out there.
I came up with this because of the speed at which this problem is going bown here. The most common and frequently happening form of abuse is Sexual abuse.
1.I am lucking the following items
A loptop (about 30GB with a good graphic speed) or a small editing machine to use when we go out in the field to shot some seens. Also a small SONY PALMCODER with USB compatible to accompany the laptop.
So far we have done two episodes and remainig with eight which we mainly want to shot from the villeges and compouds
Also i need Ideas on how best i can make the film fit the out side world. I would also welcome scripts from some of you.So far i have got a Professional SONY vedio camera as my starting point. I have also come up with a group of about 93 youths to help with the cast. A board has been made to oversee the production. We have two professional editor and four camera men and women.
Help out in anyway. you contribution will go a long way.

I see 2 options that could be usefull. Host a fundraiser for your film. I can get good laptops pretty darn cheap through a connection of mine, $700 canadian as opposed to the general $1500 - $2100 they go for. I dont have a spare one to send over to you or I would I think your film idea is a GREAT one. Child abuse is wrong and it is increasing everywhere! Child molestation is an epidemic in canada we host one of the biggest child pornography rings in north america out of toronto! but the police are gearing up to bring it down I cant wait!
If you have no ideas for a fundraiser.... I can send you some of my bath and body products at cost price (I wont profit from it at all) and you can sell them in a fundraiser give it a cool theme and try to grab media attention. Let me know how I can help.

I would really love to help out based on the international interest you have now acquired. Our organization is currently doing the same project now internationally. See: www.projects.takingitglobal.org/youngminds
We have same goal but different approach to achieving our goals. I hope we can form a merger on this project so as to effect its execution. Already we have merged with xstone projects too who is doing same too but in a country not global. So I expect your opinion soonest.
We have a laptop and we are shopping for a pam or cam coders
yours

It is indeed a great project you guys are undertaking.
But I would like to know what you guy mean by" international" because from the look oof things the projects you are undertaking are in your home countries with
youth in your country also.
