CAN-GRATULATIONS, SUMMER CON, FALL CON 2011


93 non-perishable food items were graciously donated by the attendees of A Very Potter Con: Summer Con 2011. These were donated to the Unitarian Church of Rockville’s food collection and will feed many hungry people.

Fall Con outdid the efforts of the previous Con, raising a total of 103 cans! However, we can still do better. Let's raise 130 cans at Winter Con!! 


Dysc Also Donates to:

Heifer International

http://www.heifer.org/#

Jpdysc gives away plenty of Purple Cows at Con. Now, through Heifer International, DYSC will raise money to donate an animal to a community in a developing nation.

Kiva Microloans

http://www.kiva.org/

Kiva is an organization which helps groups donate loans to citizens in developing countries. With Kiva, we can help people start up their own businesses at a relatively low price. After the first loan, we will be able to track how our money is used and make additional loans.
