Hey Everyone,

Just thought I would post this again since the previous thread is mostly buried somewhere.

A little back story -

The charity was founded in memory of Scott Ward Schofield who was also a fellow pin trader who I only had the pleasure to meet just the once. The charity helps those who suffer from EB which is a rare skin disorder go on holidays, short breaks or special days out which will create loving memories for those families.

Now this is where you guys come in. We have had only a handful of donations from kind forum dwellers in over a month of bumping the previous thread etc. Last year we had alot of generosity from the forum members here who sent even just 1 pin which added to the collective which were raffled off in various ways.

You can find out more about the charity here - http://www.scottwardschofieldmemorialfund.org.uk/

So if you can free just 1 pin or vinylmation as we are planning quite a few things for the day to help raise money for the charity and also to trade pins and vinylmations.

If your feeling the generosity then you can either send me a PM or an email to stitch2814@hotmail.co.uk and name it donation.

Thankyou for your time reading this and I hope some people find it in themselves to help out for this wonderful charity and for the work it does for thosget who suffer from EB and have to live with it and help them maybe get a special family day out while they have the time.
 
Thank you for starting up another thread for the charity. Hopefully lots of people will come together and donate lots of pins and vinylmations. The response I had to the original thread was not very good... Over 500+ views and only 6 offers of donations. This was such a great event last year and raised lots of money for the charity. Let's see if we can raise even more this year! We can only do it with the generosity and support of pin traders around the world!
 
Bumping again for charity... Have you had any more offers of donations Danny? I really appreciate you starting this tread up Danny to help the charity. Please if everyone can only donate one pin please do. Thank you to those who have already donated.
 
where is Elaine's original thread about this event????

I have just bumped my original thread that I posted about the charity event. It was buried wayyyyy back in old posts! Danny started this thread for me to get more donations but still not much response. That is why I started the post offering my Tangled Gondola Pin as a raffle prize for those who donate pins or vinylmations as an incentive to donate.
