"Donation Comittee"

SummerMoon · June 2008

So I've been thinking a lot lately...and I think it would be really generous to start like...some kind of donation committee. I know, and please correct me if I'm wrong, that Nef has already arranged that when you buy a sponsor, some of your money goes to a rescue. But that's just one. My idea would be to get together with a group of people from VP, and even VHR, and assign people to different zoos, k9 units, rescues, animal shelters etc. etc., in their own area! How would we raise the money? Well we would obviously take donations, or what I was planning on doing is making something and selling them. So, I'd like to know what everyone thinks about this. If I get enough people interested, and an Ok from the Ops, I plan on doing this ASAP ^-^. I know there are alot of organizations out there that need it. P.S - These funds could also go to health organizations! Like breast cancer, heart disease, childrens hospitals, etc. :D Ok so for anyone who would be interested I have found some useful links

I like this idea I was going to email Nef and see if I could do something for the Hooved animal rescue in my area seeing that they are having extreme hay shortage and stuff.

My idea is that we get a group of people to sell their things on VP, VHR, or any OrbisWorlds Games. They can sell their animals, train, art, etc. Once we gather some money off possibly auction all that money for real money. You would of course sell the different money [VP, VHR, etc.] in different packages. And possibly we can have people donate dogs, and we can auction a hole package. I don't know there are so many possibilties, just people have to be willing to donate fake things for real things :?

I like PishPosh's idea. If we did that one I could probably help with getting some money into it. I'm not sure if I could be much help for the other things though.

We could possibly run an OrbisWorlds Fair. I don't know how this will work but mabey we can go at it like a County Fair type thing. Have events, contests, games, etc.

Moonlight, what if you just ask for donations and ask to send them to one account. That way you could just auction it all of at once. I would be willing to help raise VPC.

SummerMoon · June 2008

well honestly, i thought that doing what i suggested would be a whole lot easier xD i didn't really want to have to deal with vpc...but idk

SunnyDaysDontLie · June 2008

This is a great idea, Moony.

Only american organizations? Or can they be Canadian aswell?

HelpTheDogsII · June 2008

What about this one <a href="http://critteraid.org/"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">http://critteraid.org/</a> I have been volunteering my time and money to them. I can help bring in Canadian dollars and VPC (but mainly for mine lol)

Any country you'd like

I just got links for US since the majority of VP players are in the US

SummerMoon · June 2008

Okay, I'm going to start organizing this thing ^-^ I think I got a lot of people interested, or at least enough? Hopefully once I get it all sorted out, more people will get into it ;D Thanks again guys! ^-^

Not yet

But we will later ^_^ Thanks Bluey ;D

EDIT

For those of you who are interested, could you please pick a shelter/rescue/zoo/aquarium/police station/charity/other organization in your area and post it here

It will be the one you will be working for ;D You can do more than one, and it can of course be out of your state if you have a preference ;D
