Fandom Fundraising Activities

Copying from leiyah_chan's blog, here are the list of places where we can send our help or participate in helping with Japan's situation.

~~~ FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES ~~~

Fundraising for Japan (arashi_on )
FAQ:
Inline with their success with the Haiti earthquake fundraising, arashi_on once again initiated a fundraising activity for Japan earthquake victims. As of March 20, the group was able to raise $17,822. The activity works like a bazaar or marketplace where fans can offer up or "sell" their SERVICES (graphics, translations, subs, etc.) for small amounts. All proceeds will then go into one account (e.g. Red Cross) as donation. JE fans are encouraged to join

Fundraising Garage Sale (arashi_on )
FAQ:
Along with the main fundraising activity as stated above, arashi_on initiated yet another fundraising activity by asking fans to sell off their items or goods for a garage sale. Again, this fundraising activity focuses on selling ITEMS / GOODS and not SERVICES.

Inori: Ongaku Society Gives Back
A J-rock/J-pop benefit gig for the disaster relief operations in the Tohoku and Kanto regions of Japan. Inori means “a prayer” in Japanese. All proceeds will go to Japan (through Japan Red Cross via Global Giving).
Event will be held on April 2, 2011 from 6PM to 2AM of the following day at Androsia, 58B Timog Avenue (beside The Imperial Palace Hotel), South Triangle, Quezon City.
Tickets @ 150; includes one drink.

UP Tomokai Buy a T-Shirt Support Projects

SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR JAPAN! BUY A “がんばれ日本” SHIRT FOR PHP250. All proceeds will be donated to assist the Japan earthquake relief and recovery efforts.

Using credit card reward points as donation (tangiblewhimsy )
This is actually a very useful post shared by tangiblewhimsy . Instead of using money to donate, you can use your credit card reward points as donation. Capital One and American Express are actually giving out this option for their card users.

JE Family Fundraising
FAQ:
A joint community of the various JE fandoms that aims to help Japan through this fundraising project. Various auctions are held in this group to help generate funds for the project.

HELP JAPAN
The group was created March 11 to raise funds in helping Japan. This is a multi-fandom, multi-media auction group which aims on ONLY one thing: Helping Japan. The group offers SERVICES and ITEMS for interested participants to check out.

Arashians for Quake Relief / AQR
We all know for a fact that SUBS are one of the most essential "necessity" when it comes to fandom. This group is using this simply stated fact to help out Japan. This is a group of Arashian communities which collaborate for one special project. They release subs PUBLICLY in exchange for donations. Kudos to this team! <3

~~~ SUPPORT ACTIVITIES ~~~

FAITO 皆さん！がんばっれ日本！
A Facebook page made by fans to collect various support messages for Japan earthquake victims.

Japan, Please Smile Again (Cool & Soul: fifth region, Chile Arashi fanbase)
Japan, Smile Again Blogspot
It is said that in Japan, for one's wish to be fulfilled, one has to fold a thousand paper cranes. This support group aims to do just that. "Cool @ Soul" asks fellow fans to fold paper cranes (origami), take a picture of it and send the photo to them via email.

Ganbare Nippon Project
"Ganbare Nippon Project" is a support group which aims to create a MV of fans holding a "GANBARE" photo. All you have to do is download and print their specially made graphic and take a photo of yourself (or with fans) with the graphic hiding your face (like, place it in front or over your face). You can be creative with the shot.

Announcement: The Face Shop Promo - Kim Hyun Joong Face Shop Posters at the KPOPCON this December 11, 2010

ok my previous entry says that i was told by one of one of our tsph admins that she was told that the items such as posters and folders will not make it in time for this year's kpop con on December 20, 2010 at the PICC.  but that was a week ago and there could have been changes and by some miracle the face shop philippines does bring the items in time and have ironed out their dealings with the organizers of the kpop con. and today i was answered a question as to when kim hyun joong's posters will be given out for their promo.





as per the conversation above it shows that this facebook account claims that the promo for the free kim hyun joong poster will begin this week on november 24 after their current promo, here is done:





well the pictures below are just the Christmas promo pix from the face shop korea.





but





it's a wish





that these





would be given out instead





but most likely it will be this kind of poster held by HyunJoong that will be given out.





as per the same conversation with the LoveTFSPhil facebook account there will also be tumblers given away as a promo from Dec1 til the end of the month(year).  grabe, tapos na ang 2010, just like that! la lang random comment.


DISCLAIMER FROM HATHOR2:
MY INFORMATION IS ONLY ABOUT A WEEK APART.  so before you start buying anything starting on the 24th of November, i suggest you make it clear with the face shop store managers of the face shop branches you go to that there will be posters at the kpop con.  and save you a trip and timing.
ALSO DON'T LOOSE your receipts as they will be used to redeem the poster(s) at the  KPOP Con at the PICC on December 11, 2010.
