Special Announcement: Holiday Raffle
In years past, I've had people who felt they couldn't offer something as a gift because of time or skill (even though I think everyone has something to offer!), but some would ask if they could somehow still participate in the gift exchange. Some even offered to pay. While that isn't part of our regular annual exchange, I wondered how more people could have the opportunity to receive their own little piece a QaF fan creation while keeping up with the holiday giving mood.
What if say, we raffled off the opportunity to have someone receive a fic written by the ever wonderful xie_xie_xie. Or someone got to send the always fabulous maybe742 a prompt for a video? Or the epically hilarious url_girl (aka reeface) were to create a BJ/QaF doodle based on your prompt?
Well now is your chance as these generous and creative Folkers have graciously volunteered to create a special gift just for you!!! And this is open to EVERYONE so spread the word!
For every $1 you donate, you get one ticket, $5 gets you 8 entries, $10 gets you 18 entries, and $20 gets you 40 entries into the draw. Payments should be made directly to the Ali Forney Centre or a local charity supportive of LQBTQIA youth of your choice. If you donate locally (ie not in USD to Ali Forney) tickets will be allotted 1 to 1, regardless of currency… 1.00£ = 1 ticket, 1.00€ = 1. Entries will be recorded upon confirmation of the donations.
Deadline for making donations and designating raffle tickets will be noon EST on December 1, 2014. The draws will be made the afternoon of December 1st with winners being posted by 11:59pm EST on the first.
The winners will be contacted by their gifter to coordinate prompts, so start thinking about them now so there's limited delay for them to start your gift. Gifts will be posted when they're ready, hopefully around the same time as the rest of the exchange.
Use the comments below to make your entries. All comments will be screened.
In the comment subject line - username, donation $body of the comment - allot your "raffle tickets" to fic, video, or doodle(ie you donated $5 - so you could do: fic -1, video - 3, doodle -1 ---> however you want to divide them up...or they can all go towards one medium)
Remove any identifying information and send donation confirmation through to qafgiftxchnge [at] gmail.com (this process is the same as they do for fandomaid on livejournal)
in the subject line of your donation email confirmation - username, donation $
If you have a question, put 'Question' in the subject line' and then ask away.
