Hi eveyrone, I am sorry if this is not allowed. I read the rules, but I figured that since it is for charity, it might be different. But if I am wrong, I am sorry.

One of my very good friend's daughter has Cystic Fibrosis. I was at SDCC this year and Mr. Sakai graciously did a sketch for us to auction off. Well finally the time has come to sell the sketch. All of the $$$ will be given directly to the CF donation site.

You can read about Alyssa and her story here:

The link to the ebay auction is here.

Again, if I am wrong for posting this, I am sorry. I just figured that this would be the place to let the true fans know about this.

Thank you,

C

This is the perfect place to post a message of this sort, and since it is for such a great cause, I'm sure everybody here will be glad that you brought the auction to our attention. I hope Stan's sketch sells for a nice amount and that it helps to raise a lot of money for the CF donation site.

Hello and welcome to the Dojo, Elveen;

If you opened your auction for international bidders you'd maybe get some more bids.
Usagi Yojimbo is well received here in Europe, you know :wink:

The CF SDCC sketch sold for $58.14. All the $$$ + the shipping will go right to finding a cure for CF.

Mr. Sakai, thank you for your generosity.


I'll see you in SDCC to personally shake your hand and say thanks.

:D
