A local church in my town has an annual rummage sale, goods donated by the members of the chuch to help members in need. The church gets half, you get half.
The ideas he came up with to raise money for a skateboard park was so outragous, the whole town pitched in. You could rent a goat for a week, then have the goat end up at a friend's place cause you sponsored the goat again. We have many farmers in the Pacific Northwest.
As an artist and especially a mime artist you are actually seeked after. When I lived in Montreal City, the mime artists on the side walk always drew a huge crowd. Go out there, go perform publicly on the side walk and put a box for people to donate. Perform for free and people will financially support you. You are not begging, you are an artist on its way to survive.
Art is supported more than you think. What if an agent saw you on the side walk and approached you.
You see I have a friend who has a dance school. She started one step at a time. She starved for years. Today her dance troop have major sponsors. She is finally making a living with her dream.
Spring is around the corner. Fairs are around the corner.

Create a flyer, you have a computer. Make an advertising ad of your dance group, an informative one you pass out at church. An Info ad. Not to announce the next performance but to relay a mission statement. Who are you, Why are you an all male dance group. What is your goal. Is this a hobby or a career. Become stars on your own, then the sponsors will show up.

Well, are you hoping to get a sponsor for the group in general or for some specific event?

If in general, you'll be looking for a sponsor to make a long term commitment to your group. In this case, it would pay to look into businesses that have a similar mission to yours. For example, if there is a gospel radio station in your area, they may want to form a permanent relationship with you so that their name will always be associated with your shows.

If it is for a specific event, the reason somebody would sponsor you is to get their name out to a group of people that they think might want to buy their product. This is a one time commitment, so you might be able to find a group that is specifically interested in the audience that you hope to draw to your event.

Either way, it would be useful to have some basic information at hand - including how many people typically attend your events and what their demographic is (age, gender, etc.). This will help a sponsor decide if sponsoring your event or group will benefit them. A clear mission statement ("we hope to spread the gospel through mime," for example) will also help them make this decision.

One source you might use when looking for sponsors (and an easy place to start) is relatives and friends of group members who own or manage businesses. Anyhow, good luck.

Israel trust the UN they have killed enough members serving in the lebanon West Bank and Gaza over the years. I don't see that working really Hamas would not mind to much Israel would not not trust anyone searching the ships they sure for some reason did not trust Turkey who have been searching ships for the same kind of stuff that Israel managed to ship to Apartheid south Africa. pity no one has had a blockade on them no way of knowning now what other lovelies they have sent WMD's to really.
