Introduction:

Hello cherished community, I am Paul Steyn, a dedicated filmmaker and storyteller, passionately engaging with the world through my camera. Today, I stand before you, sharing my story and seeking your generous support to upgrade my filmmaking equipment. This crucial upgrade will empower me to continue capturing the heart of products, nature, people, and multifaceted narratives, particularly in the realm of marketing.

The Imperative for Equipment Enhancement:

With years of dedication and an eye for detail, I have cultivated the ability to weave extraordinary stories through my lens, finding beauty and meaning in the simplest of moments. However, my current equipment is now a barrier, limiting my creative expression and the depth of my storytelling. To continue creating content that truly resonates and leaves a lasting imprint, an equipment upgrade is essential.

Navigating Current Challenges:

The past three years have been a roller coaster of emotions, marked by personal losses and a significant decrease in income, which has shaken my financial stability. These challenges have placed constraints on my ability to invest in better filmmaking tools, jeopardizing my capacity to sustain myself through my passion and share powerful narratives.

The Call for Community Support:

In these trying times, I reach out to my community, friends, and fellow storytellers, asking for your support. Your contributions will be instrumental in upgrading my equipment, refining my storytelling skills, and ensuring that I can continue to uncover and share the beauty and stories of our world through my lens.

My Journey and Advocacy:

Being an amputee has granted me a profound insight into the transformative power of resilience and support. My experiences have fuelled my dedication to the Paul Steyn Foundation, where I have been able to change the lives of 23 amputees over the last decade. Through various extreme activities and a 15,000 km walk, I have raised awareness and funds, advocating for the amputee community. However, these endeavors have taken a toll on my body, particularly my knee, limiting my ability to undertake such physical challenges. The foundation continues to raise funds through other means, adapting to these changes.

Expression of Gratitude and A Look Into My Current Work:

Your support means everything to me. It transcends monetary value, representing a commitment to the art of storytelling and my journey in filmmaking. I am immensely grateful for your belief in my work and your willingness to stand with me. To keep you updated on my work and the impact of your support, I will share a link to my latest video projects, providing a glimpse into the stories I am currently bringing to life.

In Summary:

My ultimate goal is to work, generate income, and sustain myself through my passion for storytelling and filmmaking. Your support is the key that can unlock this potential, enabling me to continue my advocacy work and share stories that inspire and connect us all. Thank you for considering to support me on this journey.
