"Zero Percent" Bracelet Auction for Charity.

For those who saw yesterday’s post on the “Zero Percent” bracelet and what I intended to do with it, the charity auction is now live! Click the link, reblog this post, spread the word. If you’re on Twitter, you can use http://bit.ly/zeroauction instead of that Big McLargeHuge thing of an auction page URL.

For those who don’t regularly follow the blog, here are the basics:

• 100% of the proceeds from the auction will go to AmeriCares Foundation, Inc. I picked them because my research pulled up that 98% of the money they take in goes towards their various relief programs. Perhaps for the next one, I’ll pick another (like Global Giving or Hands on Tokyo, each of which I’ve just been made aware).
• You have until March 20th to make a bid. Please make sure you’re serious about it, too. Don’t flake. That’s not cool.
• The bracelet is handmade; I knocked it out over the course of a day, more or less, on a bead loom.
• From clasp to clasp, the bracelet measures eight inches.
• For Non-MCR Persons: The phrase is the title of a B-Side from Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys. It also comes from this tweet. Trust me. The person in your life who is a fan (and a fan of the current era) will more than likely recognize the reference. Get it as a gift and give the gift of charity in one sweep!
• I have the auction set so that shipping price is relative to where you live. I know that means in some places it might be astronomical, but I wanted this to be as streamlined as possible. The point is, I’ll ship pretty much anywhere.
• Yes, I am planning to make at least two more bracelets in different colors/with different wording.
• You can read about the process here—oh, and if you want to know what it looks like before you click the auction link:
