View Full Version : 2018 Fundraiser Stretch Goal-$6K

Things are starting out pretty slow, so I thought I'd add a stretch goal.

In the past, the winner of the Grand Prize received a book personalized to them by Stephen King. We always supplied the book(s), but winners have requested that they be able to submit the King book of their choice. We haven't done that for fear that if the book was lost, we would not be able to replace it.

If we raise $6,000, with a few modest restrictions*, the winner will be able to submit the King book of their choice to be personalized!

Never done before, and never to be done again. This is the last year King will personalize a book for our fundraiser.

We also increased the maximum number of donation entries from ten to twenty. $200 gets a person 20 entries!

Use the donation button atop the page to donate now.



* Book must be authored by Stephen King and may not be a rebound/custom book. Only an official Stephen King book, ARC, or Proof will be allowed. Rage is politely not allowed. Management makes the final decision if the requested book will be allowed.
Winner assumes all risk for a lost, damaged, or stolen submission.
Requested inscription is always at the discretion of Stephen King. He may or may not inscribe the book exactly as requested.

We are quite a bit away from our stretch goal. If you don't donate, you can't win.

We are at ~$850 raised between the one e-bay auction and donations.

Can the fundraiser link be posted on the home page and the "new posts" page. Honestly, I always click that link when I come to the site and the fundraiser doesn't show up there.

I'll try to figure out how to get it on the new posts page (meaning I'll ask my son how).

We certainly made our $6K goal. We may have a chance at $10k.
Thanks to everyone who has helped.

I always had in mind which book. Now my name has to be picked from the hat :D

Non-binding and very unofficial poll question.

Do you think we should persevere with a annual fund raising event, with or without, Mr. King's support, to benefit a generally agreed upon three worthy charities?

Yes or answer no will suffice. Just attempting to "Take the temperature" of the membership. Thank you for your input.
