Thanks to everyone who participated in the Wheel of Time Charity Fundraiser for Heifer International!
We collectively raised $44,619.94 for the charity, making us the second largest fundraiser that happened in this time frame. The truly amazing part, however, is the amount of people who donated. We had over 830 people participate, which makes us the largest team of donors at Heifer in this time frame (in comparison, the higher earning group had only 13 donors). We truly have shown a cooperative spirit and have made an exceptional difference by banding together. Thanks to everyone who participated!
I would also like to thank Rachel Little for her help in processing so much of the data for this fundraiser. And, of course, we’d like to thank Brandon for allowing us to organize this event.
THE WINNERS OF THE GENERAL DONATION DRAWING!
We would like to congratulate Tina Wagner and Anthony Aziz! Your names were drawn on Saturday night at Jordan*Con. I’ll be contacting you soon with details. You will be named characters, with physical descriptions, representing all of us as Officers in the Last Battle.
THE WINNER OF THE SILENT AUCTION!
We would like to congratulate Brian Neff, who had the winning bid of $15,200. Mr. Neff will be working with Brandon to be a unique character in “A Memory of Light.”
BUT…. I DIDN’T WIN AND I AM BUMMED
Of course, all of us who participated will be represented generally by a military group fighting in the last battle. But you’ll be extra pleased to know that Mr. Sanderson isn’t leaving it at that. He has a lot of character names to create, and he has taken the list of all donors. He will occassionally pull another name from the bag and use that name as inspiration for another character name. While these will not be described as you, you may yet still have a chance to see a variation of your name in the books.
Thank you all for participation!
