24 hours left for [livejournal.com profile] help_pakistan

Okay, folks! Bidding for [livejournal.com profile] help_pakistan has been extended to tomorrow. Now's your chance to bid either on me or any of the other lovely fanfic/fanvidders/fanartists/podficcers/sundry who are offering up their time and talent for the cause.

My thread, just in case.

Hi, meant to ask: what charity are you sending the money to? I was looking around and the basic ones - Red Cross, Habitat, Drs. without Borders - are listed but I figured it would make a nicer impact if I sent where you were sending the money.

Thanks
Caroline

My go-to charity is Doctors Without Borders, but I thought I would leave it up to the bidder. :)

So, I failed to win you. Woe is me. But the bidding was fun!

Anyway, despite going to sleep at an inopportune moment, I still wanted to donate, and so have just given A$100 to the ACT for Peace appeal here in Australia. My donation will, apparently:"support our project partners on the ground to distribute food packages, drinking water, shelter, hygiene kits and mosquito nets for the flood affected families of Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Our project partners have has also put into action a mobile health unit to provide emergency health assistance in Mansehra."

Take some of the credit for that to yourself.

Aww, thank you so much!

You and [livejournal.com profile] inyron made me laugh a LOT on Saturday night. :D

I'm so pleased you're going to donate anyway. You're awesome.

Thanks for being a great opponent.

You guys made me giggle like mad with that bidding war. :D It's great to be wanted!

I sent you a PM so we can hash out the details of your fic.

I just wanted to say, as someone who is technically Pakistani and has most of her family living there, thank you for doing this.

Your family doing okay?
