Public Service Announcement
Jun. 25th, 2006 05:08 pmMany of you, especially those in the Harry Potter fandom, have probably read through the
msscribe fandom biography over at journalfen, and like me, were probably somewhat apalled that someone would do all of that.
A member of my friendslist was reading through that biography when she ran across the section on the charity wank. It gave her an idea. What if we could somehow turn the inevitable wank in fandom into a way to support various charities? And since she runs an internet store, she thought about making commemorative t-shirts and donating the profit to various charities. Thus,
philnthropy has been created. If you want details, this: http://community.livejournal.com/philnthropy/1920.html is the faq for the community.
I'll be posting this at a few different places, so if you get spammed by me, I apologize. And if you think that a fandom charity is a good idea, I'd appreciate if you'd pimp this in your own journals.
