Fundraiser for Demelza House
We wanted to help Daniel Radcliffe celebrate his 17th birthday.  In keeping with his wishes we have decided to host a fundraiser for Demelza House.

A bit about Demelza House:

"Demelza House Children's Hospice aims to provide support to families who have a child with a life limiting condition.
We recognise that each child is a unique, developing individual whose best interests must be paramount.
Our focus is on adding life to days when days cannot be added to life"


Your donations will be going to support a wonderful organization that helps children who will never reach adulthood.

How you can participate:  We have several authors, artists, and graphic designers who will be donating a story, piece of art, or animated GIFs.  You can commission them to write, draw, or design you an icon set.



Stories:
  1. Are first come first serve.  Each author has a set number of stories they are able to commit to.  When those slots are filled and unless the author lets us know they can do a few more stories, the author is closed out.  Some authors have indicated that they are flexible, and may take more commissions based on interest.  We will add you to a waiting list if you request a closed out author.
  2. To be completed by September 1st.
  3. You would give the author a prompt and characters you would like to see written.
  4. Donation amounts in US dollars:

  4. Donation amount in US dollars:  Any art piece would require a donation of $60.00.  $30.00 would go to the artist for supplies with the remaining $30.00 into the donation fund.

FAQ:

How do I make my request?
Send an email to fundraiser@thequidditchpitch.org.  In the body of the message:  Indicate which artist, author, or graphics person you would like to commission. Indicate your pairing, rating, and two prompts.  Once your commission has been confirmed, we will send you an invoice for the donation amount.  All donations should contain your user name, your email, and whom you commissioned.

I don't want to commission but I do want to donate.

Click on our donation button and it will take you to the donation page.  Please indicate your user name, email, and a message for Dan.

What about the fees?  Will all monies reach Demelza House?
The answer is yes.  The Captains are going to cover all PayPal transaction fees so that the full donation goes to Demelza House.

Are you going to show Dan our efforts?
We are certainly going to try!  We will be trying to obtain a address were we can send a banner and card with each of the donators names.

I have more questions!
