Hello Wolfie and thanks so much for dropping by. Could you tell us some more about the charity you are supporting? What is the good cause... and how can fans who weren't able to attend the event participate?
By participate I mean "buy a sketch"
Love,
rplass
Is anyone going to the FanExpo in Toronto or the Montreal Comic-con? If so please let me know. Dale sent me an email saying he would/could reserve me a copy of the Guardian print but he isn't into the mailing out aspect yet, so I would need to have someone mail it to me. If you could help an Alpha fan out drop me a line. Thanks,
DIGGER
Also a welcome to Wolfie

Sorry about the Guardian print (I'm Dale wife, and I handle all the admin side of Dale's work, along with my own full-time job!). We've already had several requests for print purchases -- a couple from Canada, one from the States and two from Europe, and the word is just starting to get around. With the time it takes me to coordinate payment, packaging, shipping, etc., it would cost me about $60 to send out a $20 print...I think Dale was trying to protect me by saying no. They really were meant just to sell at the fundraiser. I hope you understand. We do have 50 left, however, so I can bring those to Toronto or Montreal for people to buy.

Hi rplass!
The charity we support is a local animal refuge. They're best known for their work rescuing abused, neglected or abandoned horses (they have 75), but they also have over 300 other animals. They get no government funding, so they rely on folks like us to help out. It costs about $1200 per year per horse, so you can do the math and soon realize they can't survive on one salary (it's run by a family, and only the father works, as a mechanic in Ottawa). It's an incredible place, and they really need help.
For the participation (i.e. sketch), it's like I said to Digger: it was really just meant to be a local event. We're not taking orders for any sketches to be shipped. Dale just doesn't have time to add that to his schedule. You wouldn't want him to fall behind on his AF work, would you?! :-b
There's a link to the refuge in my blog post, if ever you want to send them a donation. Canadians get a tax receipt!
