We are so happy to announce the current total in donations which have been raised from this Magnitude 9 Exhibition : Japan Tsunami Disaster Relief! Thank you to the 150+ visitors who have come to Mils Gallery during 11-15 May 2011 and made this Red Cross Appeal Fund Raiser worthwhile in showing our support for the people in Japan.
current funds raised :
$6500
We are on our final week of sales of the artworks that are still available, which can be found here on the artworks for sale! page. We encourage you to contact us if you are interested and would like to purchase or arrange a viewing at Yann's photography studio.
We would also like to remind everyone of the opportunity to write a letter to the children in Japan. A letter drive has been organised by Hand Delivered by LOVE based in New York, who are providing the service to collect, translate and personalise letters which will be delivered personally to the children in North East Japan who are living in Evacuation Centres and trying to find their feet. 300+ letters are currently due to be delivered in June.
The emotional support that a short letter can provide from across the world, is such a beautiful gesture, and so important in such times of devastation. It will only take a coffee break of your time and we encourage you to email a 200 word message to: info@japan-earthquake-fund.com with your name, age/grade, hometown and occupation (for grown ups). A letter sample is here, and more information on their website.
