Out of all the words in the dictionary, the one bronies know best, it seems, is "CHARITY". So donate what you can, and then donate a little more. |More information below the break|
Drawing a piece of art into existence is like childbirth. Legions of us crowd to livestreams to observe how the adroit fingers of a visual artist assemble a series of perfectly inconspicuous lines until—all of a sudden—a beautiful unicorn opens her eyes!
One might say that to behold our favorite artist practicing their craft is an event in and of itself—but what if not one, but eleven of your favorite artists funneled their creativity into a single day-long stream? Could you even fathom the current?
Starting at midnight UTC+1 on November 18 (6 p.m. EST on November 17), the European convention GalaConwill host just that! On top of it all, they are joined by Anneli Heed, the famous Swedish Spitfire and best entertainer in all of Canterlot!
So get ready for none other, nary another, not one other more than
- DeathPwny,
- Garrett Gilchrist,
- Jan (Ask The Crusaders),
- John Joseco,
- Perrydotto (Ask Human Discord),
- Pixelkitties,
- Putuk (Ask Scootabot),
- Rautakoura,
- Salahir a.k.a. Custody (Ask Human Celestia),
- Suikuzu, and
- Tsitra360!
GalaCon, however, is not just planning to use the money for their glorious August 2013 convention with its own charity events, no, they decided right away to forward half of the proceeds directly to charity, or more precisely to the Seeds of Kindness 2 fundraiser of Bronies for Good!
As you will know, Seeds of Kindness 2 is raising funds for the Safe Project, an orphanage in Uganda that aims to provide a home, food, and a new family to more than fifty orphans. They want to build a chicken farm to ensure their long-term sustainability and independence. Your donations have already allowed them to erect the sturdy walls of the building and soon the roof. €7000 more and the project can be completed. So don’t wait: Donate!
