Fundraising

[hnpcc]

One of my friends, 17catherines, has come up with a fundraising skills auction to benefit the Bushfire fund. More information here.

Short version from there:

The basic idea is that a lot of people are not in a position to donate much in the way of money, but still want to do something to help fundraise. This is a place where you can put your skills or talents up for auction - offer to knit a scarf, write a story, give a language class, bake a cake, help someone with their garden or their tax - and the lucky winner of your skills will donate the amount they have offered to the Red Cross Appeal.

Please feel free to spread the idea widely. Or wildly, as I accidentally typed. Either's good.

I'll pop it on Facebook, things spread widely (and wildly) there.
