Pledge of the Day: Amy Pritchard



Amy Pritchard
Pledge: $5.00
Amy is a Social Media Strategist from Gassaway, West Virginia. Her business, AllowME offers affordable social media marketing and web and fan page design for small businesses.

HamletEug2Ed: What excites you about The Edinburgh Hamlet Project?
Amy: I love the arts. We have a strong arts community in my county and whenever possible I attend our local theater, The Landmark. I think The Edinburgh Hamlet Project is wonderful. Providing young people the opportunity to expand their horizons and travel to other places is fundamental to a well rounded education. Any project that embraces that concept has my full support.

HamletEug2Ed: What inspires you?
Amy: Thinking outside the box to give children as many avenues to learn is what inspires me most.

HamletEug2Ed: What is one personal project you're currently involved in?
Amy: We currently are battling our county’s Board of Education and their decisions on our facilities and programs. They are trying to de-consolidate our middles school and making curriculum changes that are going to eliminate opportunities such as band, chorus, music, theater, sports, just to name a few away from our kids. We have formed an organization called Braxton County Kid's First to raise funds for our attorney fees to file an injunction to stop our BOE from proceeding.

Become a “Pledge of the Day” and allow us to perform in Scotland!
