Hurricane Katrina fundraiser: 100% of all profits going to victims

[Dr Awkward]

Sword's Edge Publishing is completely onboard with this, as are Adamant Entertainment, Alternate Realities Press, and Amalara, and those are just the ones I've read about here. It's good to see the community mobilizing.

Cheers all.

Awesome. I'll get those up on the site, too!

If anyone knows of some that I haven't added to the site (BeQuest) yet, please let me know so I can help spread the word!

Ahem, to quote my boss... "What kind of cheapskate skinflint do they think I am? August to September is not five months! Get it fixed!" Ugh.

To make a correction, Alternate Realities Publications did not simply pledge 50% of all sales from August through December, 2005, but has already made the donation based on estimates of sales and growth for the next five months. What the company has pledged is 50% of any sales exceeding that estimate, plus the additional matching funds.

I know the previous companies mentioned have been gaming companies but I figured I'd mention that the electronics retailer Best Buy is accepting donations at their stores. They've already donated $1 million, and they're matching any donations collected up to another $1 million.

I figured I'd plug them so those who want can make their money go a bit farther.

Oops! Slip of the keys there, I'm afraid. I've been typing the word "September" so much that it comes out without trying now...

I'll see if I can get it patched while I'm at work today - if not, it'll be when I get home tonight.

(And for the record, donating 50% of your August & September sales is hardly being a cheapskate skinflint. Your donation is much better, of course, but still...)

That's really awesome! What a generous donation.

I'd also be curious to see how much each company can raise in funds.

Half-way through September and we're still raising funds for this. Thank you!
