News & UpdatesApril 23, 2008
We are getting close to the weekend event here in Calgary, our very own Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo. Wow!! I can't wait! There are tons of guests this year. Also I think there'll be more merchs! Yaay! My daughter and I will be coming maybe on Saturday and be just fan this time. For two years that it started, I was invited to be as one of the guests in the Artists Alley. Now I'm just going to enjoy being a fan. Comics For A Cause UpdateApril 12, 2008COMICS FOR A CAUSE Campaign 2008 ON HOLD As I'm slowing down and taking it easy on the comics end, the CFAC campaign will be held up for a little while until I get back my health to a good level. Being a diabetic and in my mid-40s, is really hard. My passion and love for comics are hampered by different personal issues. I'm sure everyone of us has had some ups and downs and I'm in such time with problem of my health. My diabetes is being monitored by the Regional Health and I'm also in contact with the Chronic Disease Control at the moment so that my medications and wellness are under control. That's why I have to take it easy for now and try to get better first and hopefully I can get back re-charged and do my comics again and hopefully getting back on the campaign for this year. I'll let you know for sure when I can. Thanks for all who supported the 2007 campaing. It was a success. Highlights of 2007 and for 2008: 1) CFAC T-shirts Sale for Lorenzo Vergara raised about $1000 and went to his kids fund. 2) Original Comics Art Auction and Sales for my uncle Francisco. I was able to raised more than $800. The funds went to Francisco's family for Christmas. Campaign Plan for 2008: 3) I've recieved some sponsor donations for the CFAC book from friends and colleagues. I'm still in need of sponsors though to help me in the printing. I'm aiming for 1000 to 1500 prints so I can give away several copies to the sick children of Children's Hospital (Calgary) when we launch the campaign for 2008 sometime in Spring. I have a guest coming with me there and a CFAC benefitiary [b]Scott Rand[/b], a paralympic athlete. Scott competes every year in the International Paralympic Competition. CFAC will try to raise funds to help out in the travel expenses. The two main goals of CFAC 2008 is to help Scott and to donate funds to Children's Hospital. I'm really desperate to get more sponsor donations so I can see the number of prints I'm aiming for. Your help and generosity is much needed. CFAC book sponsors to this date: John & Pat Mullan (Florida) I owe a lot of gratitude to a lot of people and I want to thank you all for all your unconditional supports. It would have been hard without your generousity and your sponsorships. You guys are my HERO! |
