Hey, everybody. I'm sure most of you have either given to a charity to help the Haiti earthquake victims, or are intending to (or are intending to give again). I thought I'd do my small part to encourage donations.
If you make your donation to Save the Children (a four-star charity that is one of the leaders in providing relief to Haiti) through a donation page I set up, www.firstgiving.com/tomthedancingbugg (the extra "g" is for extra giving), you could win an original drawing that I will create just for you.
I will contact the people who made the top two donations on this page by February 6 (just over two weeks from today, so ACT NOW), and I will create an illustration of their choice and send it to them. It will be pen and ink, and can feature Tom the Dancing Bug character(s), or scene(s), or anything at all, on bristol board paper, which makes for great kindling.
A few caveats and rules:
- I may reject your request for an illustration if I feel it inappropriate in any way in my sole discretion (you do NOT want me to draw a caricature, trust me). In that case, I'll draw something else that you choose.
- Check this blog after February 6 to see if you won, in case there's some problem with my contacting you directly -- I may announce the winners here by initials (I won't identify you publicly until you've been contacted and given consent).
- firstgiving.com does take a tiny cut of your donation, but I will make up the difference in a separate donation, so all of your donation will be effective.
Everyone who makes any donation becomes an official Friend of Tom the Dancing Bug, with all the privileges (and responsibilities) that accrue with that title.
