Hey!
What's going on:
I'm putting together a silent auction to fundraise for VICFAN (Victoria Forest Action Network). The funds will go towards upcoming Wild Earth which is an annual forest action training camp on BC's coast, as well as to other needs of the organization.
How you can help:
We need your skills...whatever they be. If you do art of any kind, if you can teach something, íf you have a physical item of sorts that you think would be valuable to others.. let us know.
This is a beautyfull opportunity for our community to show what it has to offer and the networking that i've experienced from the last time i did this is wonderfully worth the contribution.. as if the cause wasn't already.... like for example i was connected to some returning music students after donating a few lessons to the silent auction.
To give some examples; the last time I organized one of these babies we had everything from paintings, instruments, music lessons, web design certificates, fresh organic veggies, to beer making workshops, urban survival tours, poi lessons, plant walks, massage, to name a few.
Be creative. We all have so much to give...it may be something that's never been offered before...
Also:
We will be having a bike tune up day, by donation and we're looking for people who know how to tune up bikes that can hang out on a beautyfull day in fernwood square and tune up some bikes. I'll post the dates when théy're confirmed.
WILD EARTH
For those interested in attending Wild Earth; It is a week long event that is by donation; sliding scale $20-$50, and free for volunteers and low-income folk, and you're encouraged to come on out. Share skills, meet great people, and defend the land! Hands-on workshops, networking and volunteer opportunities.
Wild Earth is located this year in Bella Coola and goes from August 25th-31rst
