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, although we will have games to entertain and draw awareness! 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, like the previous three years, 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 to their local charities of all kinds. This year, we opened it up to contributing to your local community in any way you choose!
If you are having difficulty finding a local place, here are a few organizations you could donate to: Feeding America which will point you to a local food bank in the U.S., Trussell Trust Food Banks in the UK, and Toys for Tots. These are only a few ideas. You can also use acts of service, donating your time is just as important as goods or money.
Lastly, we are asking for you to take a "selfie" of your good deed! We will put all of your photos on our social media. 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. The Feast of Lights will last from now until January 31st 2018!
What are the prizes for our Feast of Lights Fundraiser?
We're getting back to our roots of being Servants of All this year- three winners will be selected at random and will be awarded a $25 donation to be made on their behalf to the charity/cause of their choice!
How to Donate?
Simply donate in any way you see fit and snap a selfie. Upload your photo to a hosting site or email it to me Outreachactivities@tarvalon.net, and post directly in this thread to share with and inspire others! You can also post on social media your deed with any or all of the following hashtags:
#TarValonGives
#FeastOfLights
#ServantofAll
We understand that many of you do charity stuff with your work, which is wonderful! However, the spirit of Feast of Lights is to commit your acts of service on your own time.
Don't Forget:
Even if you are unable to donate, any act of service counts, including helping spread the word that Feast of Lights is going on. It's a great way to support this fundraiser- and a fantastic way to dress up your signature!
