D.E.A.F.A. AFRO-EUROPEAN ENTERTAINMENT AWARDS 2011

D.E.A.F.A (Dery Entertainments Annual Fundraising Awards) is an Afro-European Entertainment awards event which takes place every year to celebrate and recognize achievements from the different entertainment fields (Music, Fashion, Movies, Comedy and more) with the purpose of raising funds for a selected charity. 

Every year, one charity which has proven beyond reasonable doubts that help from the public is needed for them to continue to help their victims is made the subject of the award ceremony. 

This award brings together celebrities and organizations from different parts of  the world to the country where it is being hosted, This brings the public attention to the the subject of the award which in every case is the charity to be helped. The awareness created for the charity makes the issues they suffer publicly known and brings more organizations and individuals to helping them.

D.E.A.F.A 2011 is the first of the award ceremony and this year, the project is aimed at helping S.C.Y.S.S (Sickle Cell and Young Stroke Survivors) and its filmed as a 1 hour documentary for the BBC and many other UK and International TV platforms.
