Wooster Raffles to Aid Southern Asia… Let’s Begin

As of this morning, through donations made by all
of you on the Wooster website, we’ve now collected over $6,000 to aid victims in
South Asia.

As a special thank you to all of the people who have
donated money, a group of amazing artists have donated work. First, Eddi Yip
made an amazing donation of 100 toys from his company href="http://www.adfunture.com/">adFunture. Then href="http://www.mysteriousal.com/">Mysterious Al donated 100 pages from his
prized sketchbooks. And on Friday, Jon
Burgerman
stepped in and donated 100 of his wonderful doodles.

So
beginning today, to again say “Thanks!” for making a donation, we’re going to be
launching “Wooster Raffles” where we will be “raffling” a collection of artwork
that has been donated specifically for this cause by an amazing group of
artists. Every week we’ll be putting up new pieces.

The way it works
is that for every $10 you have already donated, or (for these pieces) donate
this week, you will receive one “ticket”. So if you have donated $20, you get 2
tickets. If you donated $40 you get 4 tickets. On each Sunday for the coming
weeks we’ll be picking winners out of a hat. The winners for each piece will be
announced on the site Sunday night.

So, we’re very pleased to let you
know that this week’s donations come from the following artists: href="http://www.dface.co.uk/"> D*Face in London, href="http://www.klutch.org/">Klutch in Portland, href="http://www.apishangel.co.uk/">Nick Walker in England, Galo in
Amsterdam, and Lolo in Barcelona.

Here are this week’s pieces:

/>“The ‘Tin head’ is a piece I’ve just finished, it’s on a super deep boxed
canvas and measures 20x20 inches and is 3 inches deep, so it can floor stand or
wall hang.”.. D*Face

through Sunday afternoon will be included in this week’s drawing for the pieces
