Creations for Charity 2010 sale starts now

[Nannan]

Hello Eurobricks,

From now until early December, you can buy a custom Lego creation made by Lego fans from around the world. All proceeds will be used to give Lego sets to underprivileged children during the holidays. This is an annual opportunity where Lego enthusiasts use their creative hobby to support a great cause. As buyers, you can own the original creations from a diverse array of builders and customizers, several of whom are among the best at what they do.

To get started, visit the store on Bricklink to purchase a creation. Many of your questions can be answered there as well. Take a look at a sample of what’s for sale below. More items will be constantly added throughout November, so check often!

We accept creations for the fundraiser until December 1st. We also accept monetary donations at the store. For either form of donation over $50, you will receive an engraved Creations for Charity 2010 keychain assembled and glued by LEGO Certified Professional Sean Kenney and topped with a real gold-plated Lego brick from ChromeBricks. I sincerely hope you’ll take part in this event and help us set a new record. You make a lot of kids happy. Merry Christmas!

I will check this thread often to respond to any comments and questions you may have. I will also greatly appreciate it if you can spread the word. Thanks!

Great, I'll check the creations out... maybe I'll buy something (EDIT: Or maybe not... I don't have that much extra cash, whether its for charity or not )

Good work, this is the best lego-related charity I've heard of!

This is a wonderful idea. This will raise a lot of money (I hope...)

[XimenaPaulina]

This is such a wonderful idea! What's great about this is that one can help in different ways - donate money, donate a creation, and buy a creation. I think I'd like to contribute one of my creations, anything to help our less-privileged brethren.

Good going Nannan!

Last year the creations where really impressive, and it looks like it's going to be the same again!

Good luck with it all, and I hope you make a lot of kids very happy!

Nannan, I moved this topic to this forum because I believe it will receive better attention. BSTF forum is more for people wanting to trade and looking for good deals. This forum is higher in the list and is more likely to be seen by the philanthropic.

Best of luck! I love this idea and I hope this year is very successful.

Great idea! This comes at a great time for me, when I can actually buy something. I'll try to buy something!

Great idea! I hope this year is succesful!

If any of you are or were interested in my Bombardier Sidewalk Plow, now's your chance to get. I've decided to donate it to Creations for Charity, and you can buy it through the link Nannan posted at the top.
