Siliconera Fund For The Japan Earthquake And Tsunami Relief Raffle

Hey Siliconera community,

The situation in Japan, as I’m sure you are aware of, is heartbreaking and the staff at Siliconera would like to do something to assist relief efforts. We decided to put together a charity raffle with an awesome prize – a Cecil figure from Dissidia: Final Fantasy signed by Final Fantasy IV designer Takashi Tokita.

We’ll be throwing other swag (t-shirts, maybe some games, and… a cape) inside a mystery box in the package too. I won’t spoil these items; surprises are part of the fun! Yes, this time, we can ship the prize worldwide too. Since it’s for a noble cause, we’ll make the effort to get it out to you, wherever you are (It may take longer to reach some places than others, please understand!).

How do you win, and more importantly, help earthquake relief efforts? Donate through this magic button made by ChipIn! Each $5 donated equals one raffle ticket. In other words, donate $10 and you’ve got two chances to win. $15 for three, and so on. The more you donate the merrier.

All of the money collected will go to the Red Cross, specifically for earthquake and tsunami relief, when the fund closes. The drive starts now and ends on March 31.

Please, try to give back just a tiny bit :)

– Spencer & the Siliconera staff.
