Help Pakistan

[louiselux]

In the spirit of wanting to contribute something, however small, I've signed myself up for help_pakistan. I'm offering fanfiction in exchange for a donation to a charity of your choice to help Pakistan, which is experiencing by far the worst humanitarian crisis in its history. Floods have affected 5% of its land mass and 4 million people are homeless, with more flooding expected.

You can see my entry here. I'm offering a fic of 2500-5500 words (min) in the following fandoms: tennis rps (Roger Federer/Rafael Nadal), Saiyuki (Hakkai/Gojyo), Sherlock (BBC TV), Melusine (aka Doctrine of Labyrinths series). Please bid!

ETA: bidding has been moved forward and has begun already! It will Go on until 11:59 PM SATURDAY, AUGUST 28TH EST. The due deadline has also been brought forward to October 1st instead of February.

Loads of other people are offering all sorts of services too, if you want other things. There's a link to all the offering posts here.

Here's a post with links to charities if you'd simply like to donate.

I was wondering whether there would be an equivalent to help_haiti for Pakistan only this morning! Thank you for pointing me towards it. I will bookmark your entry. :-)

And I will also offer a story of my own...

I was hoping too! So glad that there is one. Also, I just saw your update about the moving deadline. Arrgh. But I guess it will just force me to write. :)

Argh indeed. :-) So you're plagued by an unreliable inspiration too, huh? For me, that's the main reason why I don't often take part in fic exchanges...

crapola! we made our donation to d.e.c. at the beginning of the week.

i've had to sign up for 2 extra days' work to get the husband to agree to my amount - there's no way he'll sanction my bidding any more on ginger wizards. gnah!

Awww, that is a shame. Ginger wizards... I love them.

But good on you for working hard to donate!
