And has this been hard to keep under wraps! 
 

No, not for president, although that's coming up soon enough for the Americans in the crowd....

Vote for your chosen charities!

As of this moment, there are 3 charities currently in the lead (2nd place is a two way tie that we NEED broken!)... so please let us know where YOU want to see YOUR contributions go... Poll closes March 15th so don't forget to vote today!

And while you're there, make sure  you check out the links Dana has added to the various upcoming conventions (LA isn't all that far away.....)

In other news: 

1. We're currently wrapping up Campaign #2, which was a sucess once again! We'll post final figures once we've got them.
2. Brande is currently working with the folks at the Marine Corps Semper Fi Fund to arrange the official "hand-off" of donations. Stay tuned!
3. Dana is working with the Lawrence Humane Society to try to arrange her own hand off of funds, as well as hammer out the details regarding our  "donor recognition" permanently at the shelter itself. We'll keep you posted on that too!
4. We are looking at the possibility of meeting up with fans at some of the upcoming conventions. More word on that as plans are finalized. 

As always, Fandom Rocks strives to make sure that 100% of your contributions are forwarded to the charities the fans have selected.  So while the money will *always* be delivered to the charities at the end of the campaigns, our ability to appear to do so in person is strictly contingent on work and other limitations. :)   

In other words - just a reminder (or information for those just joining us): we don't use YOUR money to pay for OUR expenses to deliver funds or attend conventions!

Okay, Fandom Rockers! How's everyone feeling about the latest episodes? I know, it's been a long, hard haul with the hiatus and the writer's strike, but we thank you for hanging in with us and our show.

What's going on for Fandom Rocks? Well, we have three weeks' left in our second campaign, and it's really coming down to the wire. We're JUST $450 shy of meeting our $2,000 goal - to be divided between the Semper Fi Fund and the Lawrence Humane Society. Donations have kind of lagged recently (Yeah, we're feeling that post-Christmas, no new episodes, wintery blahs too!)

But guess what! If we can get that $450 and meet our goal, the Lawrence Humane Society has agreed to put the Fandom Rocks NAME on the shelter - permanently. How's that for a promotion for the show and the fandom? (and it's in Lawrence!) 

I don't know about you, but that's something I'd love to be able to write "Our Boys" and be able to say we've accomplished (not to mention, a great ego boost for all the returning cast and crew if this strike ends soon like we all hope!) .... So let's get this moving!

Just like last campaign, we're in the final mile. Are you willing to join us for a third campaign? If so, let us know... we'll be setting up the voting on the website in the next few days. Drop by and cast your vote for the charities of choice for Fandom Rocks, Campaign Three. 

In other news, there's a ton of conventions coming up and Dana, Rebecca and I are doing what we can to try to arrange to be at least ONE of them. Of course, there will be more information on that once we know more. If you're also attending a convention, we hope to see you there! Bring your Fandom Rocks gear and we'll probably find YOU in the crowd!

Podcasts are still in the works for 3.08, 3.09 and 3.10 - have something you want to share about those? Let us know! We'd love to have YOU join US for the episodes too.
