Give the Gift of Art and Help Kids

I'm running a special promotion to raise money to help a local charity. With everyone getting so hyped up about shopping this week, I thought I'd offer an alternative. Buy some art, for yourself, or as a gift, and help someone else out too.
HELP CHILDREN HEALING FROM SEXUAL ABUSE. My Black Friday promo: all profits from sales of my art from 11/21-11/28 will go to provide much-needed supplies to run our local child advocacy center. The more art I sell, the more items I can buy. The center's requests are modest--things like board games, DVDs, toiletries, books, cat litter, juice boxes, Kleenex, etc. In the wake of the recent Penn State scandal, I think many of us would like to do something positive for victims of childhood sexual abuse. Please consider the gift of art.
If interested, please shop at my ecrater store:
(I am offering an ecrater discount coupon code running from now until 12/31--$5.00 off $15.00 or more. You must use Google check-out and enter the code ART5. Feel free to share this code and use it as often as you like.) 

If you can't afford to buy anything at this time (and even if you can), please forward this post to anyone you know who appreciates art, wildlife, nature, and helping others.
Let me stress that ALL profit (price paid, minus small packaging costs and shipping) will go towards purchases made for the advocacy center. I will be donating these items in mid-December.
BTW--I am able to send any artwork as a gift directly to anyone, and I can hold off from shipping until we get closer to the holidays. (You don't have to gift wrap or pay to mail!) Just email me and we'll work out the details. (zinniasandsun@aol.com) International shipping can be arranged.
Thanks to all of you for your support over the past 5 years. It has been such an experience to start painting again after so many years away from the craft. Happy Thanksgiving.
