What is the Feast of Lights?
Annually TarValon.Net, Inc. holds a fundraiser for an internationally focused not-for-profit organization. This fundraiser is known as the Feast of Lights. Unlike our other feasts and festivals- including previous Feast of Lights- this is not a festival where we open up the Faire Grounds and host games and competitions. This is an opportunity for our community to act collectively as Servants of All by donating to an organization doing work we admire. In the past we have raised funds for organizations like Heifer International, Doctors Without Borders, and Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
This year, however, we will be doing things a little differently. Instead of choosing a single charity and collecting funds, we really want our members to don their Servant of All hats and go out in their local communities. We are asking out members to donate food, time, and/or money to their local food banks, pantries, kitchens, or any other local organization that helps to feed those who are less fortunate.
A list of items that are needed can be found Here.
If you are having difficulty finding a local place, here are a few organizations you could donate money or ship goods to: Feeding America, Feed The Children, Trussell Trust,Food Banks in the UK. These are only a few ideas.
Lastly, we are asking for you to take a "selfie" of your good deed! We will put all of your photos on our new Tower Tumblr here: www.tv-netcommunityoutreach.tumblr.com. A selfie is NOT required to participate!
At the end of the fundraiser, we will a random drawing to determine the winner of our Fundraiser.
How to Donate?
Simply donate any of the items on the above list, food, time, or money and snap a selfie. Upload your photo do a hosting site or email it to me Outreach@tarvalon.net, and then fill out this form:

Even if you are unable to donate, helping spread the word that Feast of Lights is going on is a great way to support this fundraiser- and a fantastic way to dress up your signature!

Lastly, watch out here throughout the event as myself and the Community Outreach Staff bring you some trivia and scavenger-hunt type challenges. We will also be bringing back the Candle Gifts throughout the month of December, so keep an eye out for that!
Thank you all for your generosity during this season of giving.
