Ruth’s Surprise for My Hope Chest

Creating a Donation Surprise for Ruth (along w/fanbook!) For My Hope Chest; like to be a part? <3 https://t.co/Eug3KgMvHW

Hello!

Ruth Connell has done a lot of lovely work helping to raise funds for the small charity My Hope Chest, which helps support those who have had breast cancer and cannot afford reconstructive surgery.

To honor Ruth I am setting this up to raise as much funds as possible for My Hope Chest, and present it to her at SeaCon 2018.

I will also be putting a book together of fan photos and messages to commemorate the event. <3 After a donation is made I will message you to get your submission! ^-^

We’re Thankful for Rob is running a 4th campaign.

We’re Thankful For Rob is back! We are once again raising funds for the Canadian Heart & Stroke Foundation (HSF) in honour of Rob Benedict. As most of you are probably aware, Rob had a stroke at the Supernatural convention in Toronto in 2013. Every year since then, we have run this campaign in celebration of his remarkable recovery and his continued good health. In addition to raising money for the HSF, we are also helping to spread the word about recognizing and responding to stroke warning signs FAST. As we approach what could be the last ever TorCon, we are hoping to make this our most successful campaign yet!
