My story:

Dear friends, I believe that there are still good people in the world, because I am one of them. My name is Nikita and I want to share with you my story: in 2007 I turned 19 I was a young and promising guy. But unfortunately my grandmother got sick (she had both legs amputated) and the family meeting decided that I would care for her, it was the most logical and reasonable decision.

In 2007, I was 19 years old, young and promising young man with big dreams and creative. Unfortunately in my life something terrible happened ... my grandmother got sick and she was amputated both legs. Because I was in the prime of my life and did not have much income, the family council decided - that I need to care for her. (In my opinion this decision is logical and reasonable)

2017 is coming to an end. Thanks to the efforts of my family and my participation, my grandmother is still alive. But as you understand, most of the family budget went to medicines. This year, my father retires pension and he decided that now he will take care of his grandmother.

I got some free time, sometimes there are side job. The extra time I spent on self-study and learning materials allowed me to understand that if you have a dream, you will not lose your soul, despite all the bad things. what happens to you in life. But since I have no work experience, I do not have enough money to make my dream come true. My upbringing for a long time did not allow me to ask for help from strangers. But unfortunately I had no other choice.

My dream is to be the creator, creator and inspirer. And the best way in our time is to create videos and photos. In my opinion, this is the most popular niche to date. Of course, I would like to give more to my creative work and charity projects, but sometimes you need to take on commercial projects.

Why I decided to take money by crowdfinding?

I would also like to explain why I decided to ask for money on this site and did not go to the bank or borrow from my friends. As I wrote, most of the money goes to medicine, and since I took care of my grandmother, I lost all contact with most of my friends, and those with whom I am connected can not afford to lend. I tried to take out a loan, but the bank told me that I did not have enough financial support, and they refused me. Therefore, I have no other choice.

Before I ask anything, I would like to quote a biblical parable: " Give a man a fish, and you feed him for one day, teach a man a fish, and you will feed him for life." I would like to add: "If a fisherman has a fishing rod, he will be home with a catch by the evening."

Surely you saw a decent amount that I put, and would like to know what I want to spend this money on? Since I really want to take this seriously, I need universal solutions that will be relevant for at least a few years. Most of the money will go to a good camera, lens and maybe a microphone or lighting.

Thank God, I have a computer!(which I can edit video and edit photos). As I said, and start the channel on YouTube, I need a good sound and footage - to promote myself as a photographer and a videographer & start my own local business.

I decided to take a chance and open a fundraiser on this site. I am very ashamed to ask money from strangers, and even more so if this money could be sent for a charitable things. So I want to give a promise - that if I manage to save money I will direct them to charity. And also I want to direct 10% of the profit that will probably get from work I plan to direct to charity.
