Send A Heart Project - A Blatant Plug for a Friend
« on: January 07, 2012, 02:43:50 am »

Hey, everyone.

A friend of mine pointed me towards a school project at least one of her friends is involved in.  It's called the Send A Heart Project, for Social Justice class.  Said project involves choosing some sort of problem in the world and taking action to fix it.  In this exact project, a few students are asking for pictures of drawings of hearts.  For every heart they recieve, they're sending 10 cents to an anti-bullying charity.

Said friend of mine really wanted me to spread the word.  I looked at the site, and saw a severe lack of magma and beards.  Thus, I decided to solve both problems at once by posting this here.

So, um...yeah.  Help the world with poorly drawn hearts, perhaps?  Or well-drawn hearts, if you can manage that?

EDIT: To clarify, they have to be e-mailed in.

Aye aye cap'n. Your friend shall soon be the proud owner of one horribly rendered but heart-felt heart.

Okay, I can draw a heart, but my question is: Why out of every cause on the planet did they choose bullying? I mean Africa needs help, AIDS and cancer are scary, there are homeless people starving out there.

Also do I just post my heart in this thread or do I send it somewhere?

Bullying is also a serious matter in many cases.

Bullying is also a serious matter in many cases.

On an entirely lower scale then most other issues... Not to say it's a nil cause due to that, but Urist does have a point, sort of.

This also covers anti-discrimination as well, though, so it's a well-and-good enough idea and I support it. I shall help with a true Dwarven heart as soon as I can.

I'm not saying bullying isn't a big deal. I just think starvation and murder and HIV are worse. But whatever, it's still a good cause, and all we have to do is draw.

Bullying got me to where I am today!

Socially crippled and emotionally withdrawn! Hurrah!

Well, I'm pretty sure there are plenty more movements for starvation and HIV, and I haven't seen much anti-bullying causes these days.

I'll work out some tattoo art later. It'll give me a good excuse to put pencil to paper, anyway.

Clarified in OP.

Also, excellent work, everyone.
