EF is looking for Charity items (auction + lottery) - urgent
13 years ago
We're still urgently looking for items/contributions (lottery prices and charity auction items) for the Eurofurence 18 Charity! Unfortunately, the feedback has been very small so far, so please - read / share this journal and take a minute if you have something little to contribute. You do not have to attend personally EF to contribute and help. Thank you so much for reading! <3
This year, Eurofurence's charity is "Far from Fear e.V." which is dedicated to the rescue and support of dogs in need in Spain, mainly the Galgo Espanol. The registered German non-profit association is dedicated to lovingly help the dogs get a better life. More info you can find here:

We are looking for contributions for the Charity Auction and Lottery prices:
We would kindly like to invite you to donate artwork, commissions and other nice, unique items for following two events (the benefits will go 100% to charity):
1) Charity Auction:
What's new this year - we will have a special Charity Auction on Thursday (30th), held by Uncle Kage, 2 and Pinky! There will be NO Art Show panels with charity items to bid on this year, instead all unique charity items will go DIRECTLY to auction on Thursday (the Charity Auction is separate from the regular Art Auction on Saturday)! We are looking for unique, amazing contributions, for example limited and signed posters, signed soundtracks and books, artwork, commissions, rare plushies, and anything unique or special.
2) Lottery:
Like last year, we are going to sell lottery tickets to the benefit of the charity. Therefore we are looking for price donations, like a sketch or badge commissions from artists, merchandise, nice books, anything that will make people happy! Small or big - anything is welcome!
If you would like to contribute, it would be very much appreciated if you could send an email to tanidareal@gmail.com (as soon as possible, as we have to prepare the lottery tickets, etc.), telling us what you would like to donate for the Lottery and/or for the Charity Auction. If you attend EF (or let a friend bring it for you), all items can be given to us at the convention on Wednesday or early Thursday (more info to come on how to do this). If you want to ship something before, you can send it to me (I'll tell you via DM). Contributions like sketch or badge commissions simply need an email. Thank you so much! <3
Any donation that you can spare will help these poor animals getting the chance for a better life. Wer're looking forward to your help! :)
Best regards

Just email me when you find them. ^^
Hitch is, there's no way I can make it out to EF, so if I were to make stuff ahead of time instead of doing a commission, I have no clue how to get stuff to them. Is there a specific person/address I would send items to? And if so, I'd need to know when they'd need to be received by (I'm assuming at least a week prior to the auction).
I am part of the EF Charity team, you can simply contact me / if shipping required you can send it to my place. I'll tell you more via DM when I am back home. :)
I'll get back to you via DM when I am back home. :)
However, there is no special deadline - it just needs to be there before EF (Wednesday or early Thursday of the convention / August 29/30th). :3
I shall see if I can do anything - not sure if I am good enough but I can try.
Also seems like I gonna bring stuff for Mea :)
I'll tell you via DM when I am back home. :)
I will contact you via DM when I am back home today (still at work). ^^
Charity guys - just to make sure, from EF (I'll ask Pinky then as she received these mails) or the charity people themselves? (just to avoid confusion, as it's us organizing those events) :3
Just as an examply, a butterfly photo would be something like this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2948783/
But bigger, and more colourful ^^
Printing would not be a problem, I could do that here at my place. If you have any good photos of "popular" animals (e.g. deer, canines, birds, etc.), I think that would be a nice idea. :)
For any further details, please email me (tanidareal@gmail.com)
Have to contact Dark_Natascha first and will hopefully donate something unique for the auction to.
Please be so kind, as soon as you have any details which items, send me an email (tanidareal@gmail.com) so I can add them to my list (because we need to prepare the tickets, etc.). ^^
Do you have any ideas / artists with whom you could do that together? Or would you still be looking for artists to offer that service to (for charity items)? :)
I'll have a word with an artist I'm currently working with on some EF stuff to see if he'll be interested in doing a charity thing ^__^
What bathroom appliance can I engrave this time? ^_~
But it was shitty. i will make something new...and try again.
I am organizing / handling the submissions, that's because I wrote please send an e
email to me (see email address in the posting). :3
The charity lead is currently on vacation and not able to check emails. Please send it to me again.
aber ich schick dir das neue sobald es fertig ist :)
wie wärs denn hiermit? http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8161809/ ein selbstgemachtes patch ganz nach wunsch?
ich hab eine stickmaschine und könnte es so "commission" mäßig machen. ich bräuchte dafür ein relativ einfaches bild (ansonsten mach ich das einfacher ;) ) von dem char zum digitalisieren und später zum sticken.
hier noch ein paar beispiele.. oder einfach in die gallerie gucken ;)

http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7190607/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7474303/ <-- von den hundchen liegen hier auch noch ein paar rum, also sowas könnt ich noch beisteuern wenns was "sofortiges" sein soll und nicht erst noch angefertigt werden soll. zu nyan cat sagt auch kaum einer nein ;) also sowas könnt ich sofort liefern. wenns allerdings ein eigener char sein soll dauert´s n bisschen
noch ne kleine info: die bildchen können bis 13x18cm groß sein, fotos gehn leider nicht, so weit bin ich noch nicht mit meiner erfahrung ;)
Je nachdem wieviel du machen / anbieten möchtest - wir könnten z.B. fertige Patches (die sind wirklich cool!) für die Lottery nehmen, und für die Auction eine custom commission (also nach Wunsch). Letzteres wäre dann natürlich erst nach EF (der Gewinner müsste dann auf dich zukommen).
Sag bitte Bescheid (am besten per Mail: tanidareal@gmail.com). :) Das wäre echt super! Vielen Dank! :D
bei uns geht´s grad drunter und drüber, mach meinen job und chefjob (sind im urlaub) da bleibt kaum zeit mich um meine commissions zu kümmern bzw um irgendwas zu machen! XD hab jetzt 2 1/2std pause, dann gehts wieder weiter..
It would be great if you could send me an email with more info. :) (tanidareal@gmail.com)
In case this really becomes more than an idea, please send me an email (tanidareal@gmail.com). =)
Thank you! <3
das ultimative Überraschungspaket!
Der Inhalt zum Teil nützlich, zum Teil toll - zum Teil schräg und verhasst aber alles in allem einen Lacher immer Wert.
Wichtigste Regel: ES MUSS vor dem gesamten Publikum ausgepackt werden.
Es muss gezeigt werden! (Kamera am besten für große Leinwand - denn man will ja das hocherfreute Gesicht sehen) Und auch kommentiert und erklärt werden was es ist.
Sofern nutzbar auch gleich nutzen.
Ich hab nun nicht so den Plan was man alles in so ein Paket rein tun könnte für Furs aber gut so einiges fällt schon ein beim schreiben.
Inhalt z.B. einer Anime Kiste: Sailor Moon Artikel (das Beste war mal eine Perücke - getragen von einen sehr großen äußerst rundlichen Mann mit wenig Haar - kommt gut ^^), Hello Kitty Sticker. Mangas / Traiding Cards - beliebtes Merchandise (EVA damals z.b.) etc pp - oft auch Sticker oder Seifenblasen - Viel Kleinkram halt. Auch mal ein Plüschtier (Pikachu).
Eventuell könnte man das ja umsetzen (ich weis nicht ob die Zeit noch bis zur Con reicht für so etwas).
Inhalt Beispiel: Plüschtier, Art, ein Band für Badges, total kitschige Aufkleber von Tieren, Hello Kitty kommt sicher auch gut. ein Buch. Ein Haarreif mit Katzenohren dran? Oder Mickyohren, Stifte mit Tieren drauf oder kleine Notizblöcke - vllt ein My little Pony (ist doch so ''in'') - Es gibt doch auch FurryCardSets von diversen Künstlern ... der Inhalt sollte schon etwas wert sein. aber auch viel Trash / Witz / Lacher ^^
Mindestgebot 10 - 20 Euro (ist ja für einen guten Zweck)
Kiste natürlich auch auffällig gestalten. Regeln vorher erklären und sie muss natürlich richtig angepriesen werden :P
Eventuell was? :3
Diese Versteigerung war bei uns immer der Höhepunkt - also am Ende der Auktion - somit wurde gewährleistet, dass alle im Saal blieben. ^^ (wurde natürlich vorher gesagt und gaaaanz am Ende die ultimative Überraschungskiste!)
mfg Meeko :'D
Es sind ja noch 7 Wochen bis zur Con, da müsste sich eigentlich noch einiges sammeln lassen. :]
na dann fröhliches schaffen (x
This would be on the back of it http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7810016/
Pony stuff usually goes pretty good
Yes, EF is end of August, so there would still be time. You could simply ship it to my place (please send me an email tanidareal[at]gmail.com and I'll send you all info).
I think some Pony items would be a nice touch indeed. :)
EF is already next week, so unfortunately that will probably be too short. Where do you ship it from? If it's from Europe, you could ship it directly to the hotel. If it's from outside Europe, it probably won't arrive in time any more (the Auction would be on Saturday). So sorry for this trouble. :/
