MCM last weekend was a great success, and between Jenny Clements, Jason Cardy and myself, Draw the World together managed to raise just shy of £700 (which we’ve rounded up!) Half of which will be going to EveryChild, and half to the St. George Foundation, who help war-orphans in Sierra Leone! This is a great total and it was a really fun weekend so many thank to everyone who came by, said hi, made a donation or got a sketch, and a great big thanks to Jenny Clements for lending us her drawing skills, and to the organisers of MCM Expo for having us!

Best wishes till next time!

Spirit of Hope

Some of our favourite Draw the World Together artists have recently been involved with the production of an amazing new charity publication.
The Spirit of Hope is a unique anthology of short stories from the world’s greatest creators dealing with the impact of disasters on people’s everyday lives. Creators include Mike Collins, Liam Sharp, Henry Flint, Nick Abadzis, Glenn Dakin, Mark Buckingham, Al Davison, Peter Hogan and Andrew Wildman with stories covering all aspects of human life in the face of catastrophe. The collection comes in two editions – one with a beautiful Jimmy Broxton cover (pictured) and a second with a cool Michael Allred cover. All profit from the title will go to help disaster victims via Second Harvest and the New Zealand Red Cross.

Copies of the book can be ordered and are £14.99 + £3.00 p&p. Anyone ordering should state their preference of cover, both can be seen on the CBA website where you can also place your order online.

This is a great book for a great cause. Give it your support if you can.

Transformers Auction

As you may have seen we recently had two auctions of sketches and sketch cards to raise money for our projects. Just starting is the third of the three promised auctions. This one is all TRANSFORMERS related material. We have Sketches, T Shirts, Baseball caps, Comics, Books and Toys (well, one toy). Some of the books and comics are real rarities as they are signed not only by Furman and Wildman but are also the only known copies also signed by Baskerville and Yomtov. A real comic collectors treat. Our toy is also an amazing piece. Donated by TFcon in Canada it is a limited edition model that should attract a lot of attention. All in all a feast of Transformers goodies not to be missed.

You can check out all the items here. There are two batches of items. Both are up for 10 days with some finishing in the morning of Sunday 28th November and some in the evening. Enjoy.

auction Ends

The second of our two auctions ended at the weekend with an overall great result. Predictably the standout items were the WATCHMEN sketch cards by Dave Gibbons. These two auctions of sketches and sketch cards have raised just shy of £1000 for our two chosen charities. A big thank you to all the artists and all the bidders. These valuable funds will go to aid the work of EveryChild and the work they do with some of the worlds poorest children.

The funds from our second auction will go to the DEC to aid the work being done to help the victims of the Pakistan Floods.

More news soon.

SKETCHY!

As our first auction of charity sketches rolls towards its end on Sunday our second one starts. This is the Auction of SketchCards. There are some real gems in here that we have been collecting over the past couple of years. Check out all the cards in the auction as well as the current sketches HERE .

And don’t forget to Spread The Word

For this particular auction we are going to be doing things slightly differently. The funds raised through eBay will be targeted to the Disasters Emergency Committee and the work they are doing to help the victims of the Pakistan Floods. This seemed something on such a large scale that we simply could not overlook it.
