help_haiti fan-tastic auction

[netlagd]

I hope that the mods will allow this.

I would like to pimp help_haiti. This community is raising money to help the relief efforts in Haiti by auctioning off fanfic, graphics, vids, art, audio, other and more stuff

Normally, no. But given the premise of the comm, and the spirit of fandoms giving back, I'm behind this 100%.

[netfics]

Ahhh, you are so good.

I couldn't believe that rhianonhero was willing to write QAF fanfic again - 5k words of it, swoon and sigh! I'm still going through all that is being offered, it's so cool!

[teatotaller]

Can we track which QAF authors are in there? I found netlagd's offering but the other post had dozens of pages. I'm very interested in looking through them.

I went through the listing searching for QAF or Queer as Folk and found the following. I also found several familiar qaf fandom folks who didn't specifically state QAF, but said "any" fandom. So I urge you to peruse everything - look for familiar names or icons with QAF folks.

Here's what I found:

Here's fic:
rhiannonhero here

tsarcasm here

Maybe you can help me to understand how this works because I'm not familiar with this kind of auction and for a question of language...I'm not american/english/ect and reading the post in the comm does not help me.
- You make a bid (a offer) for a fics/icon/ect but only to the org listed in this comm?
- If you win the auction how you prove the payment?

Usually every year I make an offer to 'Doctors without Borders' and at this moment in some public collections here in Italy.

I will be grateful for the answer.

Hi! I believe that the way it works is that the winning bidder at the end of the auction makes a new donation in the winning amount to a charity to help Haiti (Doctors Without Borders would be a great one). Then you email the person the receipt that you've received from the organization as proof of your payment and they provide you with your item.

I hope this helps!

[kika_k]

Yes. Thank you!
