And if you don’t care enough to donate, then nobody does. On this final day of our annual donor drive we are encouraging you to look back on the past 9 reasons to donate HERE.

And don’t forget that by helping us stay afloat into 2010 you’ll actually be helping yourself! You’ll be entered into a raffle to win any of these prizes below, including our grand prize…

Yep, it’s a Mini for a weekend complete with gas and insurance courtesy of Mini Yaletown! One of the days that you’ll have the Mini you’ll meet up with Christine and Jonathan from Bonnie And Clyde so they can shoot portraits of you. Maybe it’s you and your significant other, your family or a group of friends… it’s up to you what you do with these awesome grand prizes!

And of course you’ll be eligible to win any of these other prizes we revealed over the past 10 days…

WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?

Your kind donation will be put towards our operating costs including our office rent, executive/administrative costs, site design/maintenance and hosting, accounting, promotions, events as well as the multitude of other expenses that come along with operating a federally incorporated non-profit that relies on the community that it supports to finance it. In the future our goal is to release an annual printed book as well as opening a community-minded retail space/gallery but in the short term our goal is simply to keep our web presence afloat and put on some more events in 2010, and we really do need your help to do that.

WHAT DO YOU GET OUT OF IT?

Not only will all of our 2009 donors walk away with a good feeling about helping us out but your name (or the name of your business) will be laser etched onto our 2009 donor plaque and you’ll receive a set of 3 pins and a bumper sticker. At the end of our ten day donor drive we’ll be holding draws for thousands of dollars worth of giveaways donated by local businesses. By making a donation today you will be eligible to win any of the stuff we unveil over the coming days.

The giveaways above are courtesy of a bunch of local companies including Dace, Mint Records, Vincent Park, Girl, Arc’teryx, Furni, Crownfarmer, 32 snowboard boots, Dragon, Purdy’s, E’s, Medina, UBC Botanical Gardens, The MOV, 49th Parallel Roasters, Vancouver Special, Color Magazine, Vans, Westbeach, Arson and Orb.

HUGE thanks to everyone who has already donated!!!!
