JAMPcon, an unusual fundraiser!


Hey, everyone! Leslie here, Victor's daughter! I'm here to tell you about a most unusual fundraiser I did. Have any of you ever gone to a convention? There are all kinds of conventions! Wedding conventions, animal conventions, boat conventions, baby conventions, Star Trek conventions..... well, I attended a Japanese animation and comics convention! JAMPcon, here in Chattanooga, TN. As unusual as that may sound to you, it's also a creative way to get the word out there! I had my own table at the convention's Artist Alley, where I sold prints, buttons, coloring books, and pillow dolls, wares from last year's convention, and all of my own artwork. I even had copies of my husband's and my novel for sale. It was with this I was able to raise a donation toward my dad's kidney-pancreas transplant. The Lord has blessed us incredibly, and He doesn't seem to be done!

Are you interested in cartoons, comics, and videogames? If you do, be sure to check out Anime Weekend Atlanta in September; I'm headed there next!
