TIF Sponsorhip Form for Singapore Conference Attached. Deadline July 31
Manal:
Hi
I have received a reply saying that they have received 100 applications from 25 countries and that they have agreed to give me a sponsorship of $ 1000 upon arrival in Singapore. They requested that i should reply before the end of August to confirm if i accept this sponsorship and i can afford to pay the rest or not. That is what i am finding now if i will be financially capable or not. Hope i can , i will let you know
regards
manal

Wow! :congrats
At least you got something from them but it looks like they won't cover the expense of getting there which could be a lot from Egypt; including visa arrangement and fees.

Manal,
Congratulations on the acceptance, if you have the finances to go..I recommend you should try and go....the conferences are a great way of meeting others..
I unfortunately wont be able to attend the conference.. due to financial dificulties and the fact that I wasnt well the past few months and wasnt sure weather I would still be on the interferon or not...
But I have been to 2 and they were the best times I have had....
Take care

With a lot of excitment, :yahoo :yahoo :yahoo :yahoo i will manage to attend the conference. I registered yesterday but unfortunatly was not able to reserve a hotel till now as the deadline is over, but i will see what i can do about this. I have a lot of feelings i am so happy but very anxious and worried. I know that this would be important and informative time but it is also the first time for me to travel alone that is why i am worried.
Had a thought, which i want to share with you.. this trip will cost me a lot of many in spite of the sponsorship due to variation in currency, tickets, choosing an expensive country... so was it better to didicate this money for the trip or was it better to give this money as a donation either to the ETA or our site, i had such a conflict, actually as you see i chose to go , was that a bit selfishness ( especially that Andy is going and he is the best one to be there) or it is really a beneficial thing to do as a patient, what do you think???
Thanks to all your replies and never mind Smurfette definetly more conferences will come and please post all the questions you and everyone need to ask.
To all who sent the application, did anyone receive anything from TIF or not yet??
