Hey everyone, this is your Minion of the East. June is around the corner, and I felt like giving back a bit to my local community. What brought this up? Well, back in April, our family dog of 12 years had to be put down sadly, but he was surrounded by all of us as we were there for his final moments. It was sad to see him go, but it made me feel sad not only for losing a family member, but how difficult it is for anyone during these stressful times. The majority of our family pets were adopted from a local shelter in my county called Save-A-Pet. They mainly get funding from charitable donations, and they are a no kill shelter. You can find out more information about them in the link below.

Also part of the reason is to give a bit back with more adoptable characters I no longer use. They'll be given away as auctions during the first week of June. So my plan from June 1st til June 8th is whatever I gain from the auctions, and commissions, half of the proceeds will go to Save-A-Pet. I'll be streaming this entire week as well to promote the charity, and take donations during the stream through my Ko-Fi account which can be found here.

Donations during my stream will also account for any requests one may want to see made into a story or a caption creation. Also, 100% of donations through Ko-Fi goes to the shelter. The entirety of my streams and stories for the week will be animal based, specifically house pets. Picarto streams will be done during the afternoon CST. Times for the streams will be announced hours ahead of time and posted here as status updates. Picarto streams can be found here.

Lastly, the adoptable characters will be found in this stash folder and bidding will be open the day of June 1st, at Noon CST. There will be a starting bid for each character in the description, a minimum bid of how low you can increase the bid total, and an auto buy option to buy the character upfront. For bidding, the highest bidder will have a period of 48 hours to hold their spot in order to claim the character, or lose to the next highest bidder. If June 8th rolls around, whomever has the highest bid at that cutoff point will be given the character. Comment down below with your bidding price as I'll put the names of the adoptables, and all you have to do is reply. As an added bonus for those that auto buy any adopt, I'll throw in a character background story/caption with your input. As a special request, my good friend https://www.deviantart.com/thenornonthego has offered an adopt as well, with the proceeds of that auction being 100% given to charity.

I really hope to see some turnout for the streams, but would be more grateful to donate to a good cause. If you don't want either of the characters offered, donations will still be accepted during my streams and you can still donate to the shelter in the link up top. If no one can donate at all, I encourage you all to share this to anyone that would be willing to donate. Hope to see and hear from any of you in the first week of June!
