About the Fundraiser
Hello Deviants!
Many of you know that I try to be as active as I can in wildlife conservation, particularly helping tigers. I've traveled to Thailand, India and Sumatra in my quest to have an impact, but the time since returning from Asia have been very quiet. I've graduated from university and have been desperately searching for opportunities to start my career and help species in need. The fact that I haven't been successful and have not been able to put full-time effort into conservation has been something that has weighed heavily on my soul...but I hope in the near future things will change.
After years of shopping my resume to those who would take a look, one of my previous colleagues from FREELAND Foundation, a human/wildlife trafficking non-profit in Thailand, became interested in my skills and experience. I was extremely fortunate enough to be
offered a full internship with FREELAND Foundation to help them in tiger and elephant conservation, complete with on-the-ground assistance to field teams. It would be completely voluntary, but it would allow FREELAND in executing programs and help communicate its work to a wider audience. There is also the possibility that it could translate into a paid job at some point in the internship.
Over the past months, I've saved very little, focusing on paying off student loans. I would love to take advantage of the opportunity, but the fact remains that
I need to raise money to help FREELAND. It is for this reason that I'm starting a fundraiser to raise enough money to donate at least 6-months of my time in Bangkok.
I know that I've done fundraisers and print sales quite a few times, but I hope that you'll consider my work again this time around. You have already been incredibly generous and have made my dreams come true before. For that, I'm incredibly grateful.
To have the support I've had from you has been amazing and I never take it for granted. I also believe it to be an honor that people would consider giving my work a home on their wall.
Sincerely,
HeWhoWalksWithTigers

No problem. <3 I even put out a journal for you, and knowing my watchers, I'm sure they will spread the word, too. :>
And I mentioned your fundraiser in my journal, and a few of my friends said they may order a few as well.
All photos are fair game for ordering (for the most part). Larger prints (11x14+) may exclude some of my older images which have smaller resolutions. For the calendars, most people order "landscape" oriented photos, since that is the format of the calendar, but "portrait" images can be resized or cropped depending on your preference. I try to work with folks to makes things work, including with payment methods.
Ok, thank you. I'm still trying to decide which ones I want..it's very hard.
