  The High Risk Fund
  Heath Bunting, manager

Investment in projects in this fund is risky, but promises extremely high dividends. Assurances of adequate funding for any project accomplished in this fund maximizes turnover and adds incentive to project participants to act quickly. This fund is managed by Heath Bunting, who has shown great staying power as a producer of high-impact cultural dividends with a sizeable oppositional punch. See also the Cultural Terrorism Agency for additional HR/HY fundraising strategies.
