What is Huenya Aid 2021?
Huenya Aid 2021 is a benefit concert and performing arts showcase being held to support Huenya in its rebuilding efforts after the heavy damage done by Xiomeran forces during the recent civil war and the subsequent withdrawal of Xiomeran forces.
Who is staging the event?
Huenya Aid 2021 is being held by the nonprofit Huenyan Aid Foundation. All funds raised are to be used to fund charities and private groups helping the Huenyan government and people with rebuilding efforts. The event is planned to be a 24-hour televised event, with people asked to donate either by telephone or online. The Huenyan government is not directly involved with the effort, and no funds will be going directly to the government.
How can you participate?
There are several ways.
If you have an artistic contribution in mind, you can have one (or more) of your nation's performers or artistic groups perform during the event. This could include music, dance, or other forms of television-friendly talent shows or performances. Your own creativity is the limit for this option. If there is sufficient interest, events could be held in multiple cities throughout the IDU.
If you have fundraising in mind, you can have groups within your nation raise funds prior to, or during, the performance to contribute.
If you want to make sure the charity is legitimate, the Foundation will invite qualified people from other countries to hold seats on the board of directors. You can also have one of your nation's accounting firms join the effort to help keep track of the funds and make sure they are spent for their intended purpose without corruption or fraud siphoning off any of the money raised.
If your nation's government wants to help Huenya (or wants to insult Xiomera, or both), your government can donate funds and/or encourage your citizens to do so. Highly public donations from major international figures are also a good way to show they want to help Huenya (and, also, insult Xiomera if they're so inclined).
How will it work?
This is subject to change based on input from those interested in participating, but tentatively, I would make an initial post once the event starts to kick things off. Participants would then be free to post whenever they like in the IC thread with their contributions to the effort. I would like to discuss those contributions ahead of time in this planning thread, but during the actual IC event people would be free to post as time permits them to. It would be a fairly open-ended event, with participants also free to post at the end how much money was raised in their nations for the effort.
What's the purpose of this?
Admittedly, one purpose is to help jump-start Huenya's recovery from the war, but the main purpose is to give us a chance to do a RP that is a bit different from what we normally do in the IDU. Something, ideally, where we can be a bit creative and have fun with it. I am open to any suggestions as to how to make this event work as well.
Feel free to post suggestions or your ideas for participation below and let's kick things off!
