I was really impressed with the response to the photo print fundraiser for Chile. I never cease to be amazed by how generous my family is, how kind my friends, and what huge hearts the readers of this blog have. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you, from Chile. Here’s a video of me donating the amount we raised so far, and we should have some more donations coming in over the next couple of days (if you’ve bought an Etsy print, and haven’t Paypaled the money yet, as soon as I receive payment I will ship your photo and then add that amount to the donation. If you already paid, your photo has been ordered and you should have it within two weeks!). As long as people continue buying prints and this country continues to need help, I will continue donating the money.

As you can tell, between being smack in the middle of full on wedding season, one of my best friends getting married this weekend, shipping out prints for the earthquake fundraiser and taking video footage of Santiago, I haven’t had much time to sleep. I’m slightly incoherent in the video, but you get the point — we raised a lot of money in less than three days and I’m really happy. Goodnight.

Thank you from Slarco on Vimeo.

  7. KYLE! You are sooooo awesome!!! <3 Great job! We're trying to do our part here in Austin… in addition to donating to untechoparachile earlier this week, Annje and my empanadas raised $180 last night! Which counted toward the grand total of $7,000 usd that the benefit was able to raise. We were sooooooo excited!!! :) <3
