We had planned
for a while to make physical donations to help the homeless in our area but since COVID is still ravaging, we have decided to donate the money instead to help those who distribute food to people who cannot afford it, and do that more efficiently than we ever could. So this donation went to World Central Kitchen. You can read all about their inspiring efforts on their website, https://wck.org/. We will continue to try and support those who are less fortunate than us by donating portions of the profits from Ostdrossel mask sales. You can find all masks at the main page of ostdrossel.com and on Redbubble. Thank you all for the support ❤️
October donation
I have split up this month’s charity donation. One part went to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy to help their efforts with Covid-19 relief, the other part went to the Wildlife Conservation Society in honor and memory of a good friend and wildlife lover.
(I have yet to decide on a new charity. Feeding America has sold my data, so I am currently getting swamped with (mostly political) charity requests, and while I generally love what they do, this has left a bitter taste. If you know of a worthy cause, feel free to email or message me.)
Masks 15 % off until July 13!
Redbubble is giving a discount on all masks until July 13th 11:59 pm. Use the code MASKS15.
All profits from my July mask sales will be donated to the Native American Rights Fund. There are direct links to the masks right here at ostdrossel.com, but you can also go to my Redbubble shop. I also have stickers, cards and other things available there.
New charity for mask profit donations
I will make the next donation to Feeding America in two weeks, but all profits from mask sales starting today and throughout July will be donated to the Native American Rights Fund. There are direct links to the masks right here at ostdrossel.com, but you can also go to my Redbubble shop. I also have stickers, cards and other things available there.
Kudos, birdlovers.
I checked my Redbubble shop today, and mask sales have amounted to $902.30! This is impressive and stunning and makes me so proud. I will get paid by Redbubble on the 15th, and will make the donation to Feeding America right away. If you want to make this a round number, go and get yourself a mask too. I linked them on here, or you can go to my Redbubble shop ostdrossel.redbubble.com.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, YOU ROCK!
I hope
you all had a great first of May. The weather was glorious here! Anyways, I have been very busy, so I did not have a lot of time to go through photos. But the cameras are out, and hopefully tonight I will have a couple. To hold you over, here is a Black-capped Chickadee.
I also would like to thank all of you who ordered masks so far. You have been STELLAR, and profits from the masks are nearing 400 Dollars so far. It looks like I will be donating the profits to Feeding America. Redbubble pays in monthly intervalls, so there is still plenty of time to get a mask and help the cause. If you have wishes for color combos or motifs , let me know. I will try to add links to ostdrossel.com as well, so they can be found easier.
Thank you all, and have a beautiful Saturday (I can’t even tell what day it is anymore, oh boy)!
