Following the earthquake and tsunami which stroke Japan, many doll & Blythe community members quickly organized raffles & auctions to collect some money & raise funds.
They can all be found in the Flickr group Dolly Community Unite for Japan.
Dollipop & Fishberry Jam have also made lists of all the raffles, auctions & special sales.
Many thanks ! :-)

A huge thank you to Gaia/Bambina Carabina for making this banner :-)
I want to help out as well, and I'm offering a Patchwork Princess set for Blythe dolls.
100% of the funds collected will be donated to help Japan:
50 % of the proceeds will be given to Japan Earthquake Animal Rescue and Support and the other 50%
will be given to GlobalGiving Japan Earthquake & tsunami Relief Fund.
The method is a raffle :-)
Tickets are $5 (USD) and you can purchase as many as you want.
You'll be given a number with every ticket purchased. The raffle will be open until Monday (28th) midnight, (Paris time). I will use random.org to pick up the winner.
I will cover the cost of shipping and will send the set via registered/insured airmail.
This Patchwork Princess set includes:
- a pair of flared hazelnut corduroy trousers (fully hemmed)
- a petal pink mohair knitted sweater with slightly bell sleeves,
- a moss green crochetted hat,
- a flower hairpin,
- a blue woollen scarf,
- a Patchwork Princess bag: lined, with adjustable strap and featuring vintage glass bell flowers.
All items fasten with snaps.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to email me :-)
I will update this post as the raffle goes on to keep you informed all along.
Many thanks !

A last update to thank you all for participating in this raffle, for your generosity and for trusting me as well. Thanks to you, $150 were sent to JEARS and $150 to Global Giving Japan Earthquake & Tsunami relief Fund today, as we collected a very round amount of $300 (USD).
I will email everyone one last time to send you full receipts of both donations.
Thank you all so much again :-D
