THE PEOPLE IN THE PHILIPPINES NEED YOUR HELP!!

You all remember when I was participating in SuperCharityGo?
The premise was: DONATE SHIT, GET ART.

They are running an emergency fundraiser to help the people in the Philippines.
For those of you who don't know, the Philippines was hit by Typhoon Ondoy, flooding it with a month's worth of rainfall in the span of only six hours. Twenty-five provinces have been turned into utter disaster zones, with hundreds dead and millions affected. And to add insult to injury, there's another one on the way.

Copypasta from SuperCharityGo:
The Philippines needs help, and I want us to rise to the challenge. Any amount of money or possessions you can donate is invaluable. Skip lunch. Dig up an old blanket. Hold out on that book you're dying to get. It is much, much, much more important that we give the Philippines our attention right now.

You guys already know how it's all going to work, because this drive is going to run just like normal. The only difference is that, since this is something that needs a response NOW, we're not going to break the charity drive up into sections and will instead do the whole thing in one big manic run from now until November 30th. This means that there are no applications, people can jump in any time they want, and donations will be accepted the entire time. So, this is more of a FAST AND FURIOUS mini-drive, just to lend a hand.


MANY ARTISTS HAVE LOWERED THEIR PRICES.
Seriously, I'm probably going to donate and you all have heard of my ~*money situation*~. There's some amazing art being offered from as low as TWO DOLLARS.

[DONATE]

[PROVE YOUR DONATION]

[REQUEST ART/SIGN UP TO GIVE ART]


Seriously, I know how awesome you are and I cannot stress enough how JUST A COUPLE OF BUCKS, or a SPARE BLANKET YOU NEVER USE is utterly, utterly needed.

The Philippine Red Cross does not take just money--they also take anything from clothes to canned goods--but if you are looking for other ways to donate or just more information about the situation, you can find more info here, here, here, and here.

I KNOW HOW AWESOME YOU ALL ARE, SO LET'S GET OUT THERE AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE! :D

IF YOU REALLY CANNOT DONATE, OR SIGN UP TO GIVE ART/FIC/ICONS/MUSIC/ANYTHING, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD. IF YOU WANT ME TO MAKE A STANDARD PIMP POST I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO. JUST LEAVE A COMMENT.

REMEMBER: THE MONEY YOU DONATE GOES TO THE CHARITY, NOT THE ARTIST.

Ohay. I should've introduced myself. Tahu, from LJ.
I don't know how I didn't know that you had a devART.
And thank you! :>

Oh I seee, I see.
Hey if anything, it gives me another mode to stalk you on. Your doodles on LJ amuse me enough for me to follow you here, too. I like what you've uploaded so far anyway.
