Fandom Fights the Tsunami's

On behalf of UNF4Rob, Krystal, Maria and Alex, we want to thank you for joining this site, our twitter account and your donations. As you know Japan, Hawaii and the West Coast were greatly and horrifically affected by a Tsunami. With the number of bodies that have been found growing quickly, it is nearing 300, they are in need of our help. The disaster destroyed huge parts of the areas and injured thousands. With your donation you could be helping out more than you know.

Whether you are an author dedicating your time and your words, or a donator, you are ALL amazing. By donating a minimum of $10 (Which is the minimum for The American Red Cross) or whatever your minimum is in your country (Feel free to donate more than your minimum but that is all we require) you will have access to a compilation of stories and poems by amazing authors. Please remember that all donation sites may require a different minimum from another. It is usually in a different country. We will accept all donations as long as they are for a tsunami relief. These stories are going to be from all different kinds of fandoms; not just twilight. So if you want to write for Harry Potter, Hunger Games or write your own original fiction, we need you! All stories will be due by May 11th.

If you decide to donate, please remember to forward your receipt to our email fandom4tsunami@gmail.com. We have decided to use The Red Cross as our organization we will be supporting and you can check out their website here. That link will take you to the list of ways you can donate to the Red Cross. Please click on the Japan Earthquake and Pacific Tsunami button and procede from there. When you are done, just, please, forward your receipt to our email! Since the demand of help is strong right now, you can start donating whenever you would like.

If you are an auther signing up to write for the compilation please click on the button to the right at the top of the page and sign up. We will add you to the list as soon as possible.

Thank you so much again, and please spread the word about this! With a fandom so huge, we have the opportunity to do something huge and beautiful. Please email us or @ us on twitter with any questions.

  3. Hope this is acceptable...I blocked out my address and email address on the American Red Cross receipt (in pdf format). Tracking code, amount, etc. are still visible. ^^ If it's not acceptable..oh well^^ I would have donated anyway. Thanks to all of you for your efforts.

  7. Have you tried donating to a fundraiser (even red cross) that is designated for your own country? A lot of people have come to us with that question, and as long as it is tsunami related and you forward your receipt to us, it will count! Sorry for the confusion!

  8. I have a quick question about donating through text? Will accept donations/receipts that way as well. Or do all donations need to be made online?
