jaapv Posted March 2, 2008 Share #5 Posted March 2, 2008 Donation for the 2nd group of 50 photographs made. I just found out: I was # 200, and there are plenty after me, so sponsors, come on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted March 2, 2008 Share #6 Posted March 2, 2008 My most sincere thanks to those who have donated thus far. To those who have yet to do so, let me just say that the DPS is a charity - it receives no income other than donations such as ours. For the price of a filter, a memory card, a wrist strap, a brick of film, we can help others less fortunate than ourselves to enjoy photography. Please donate, whatever you feel you can afford. I have written to the DPS again tonight telling them of the success of this project, and asking them to keep me appraised of how much we eventually manage to raise on their behalf. Again, thank you, both from me, and on behalf of the DPS. Regards, Bill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotografr Posted March 4, 2008 Share #7 Posted March 4, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thinking about how much pleasure and satisfaction I get from my photography, donating to this cause was something I absolutely had to do. Thanks, Bill, for providing the means to do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theodor Heinrichsohn Posted March 4, 2008 Share #8 Posted March 4, 2008 Bill, Took a picture on 29th Feb. but in spite of various attempts could not manage to post. Did send a donation via PayPal Euro account as per Andreas' post. Teddy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
masjah Posted March 5, 2008 Share #9 Posted March 5, 2008 Bill This is indeed a noble cause. I couldn't take part in the Leica Day (unfortunately) though I did send the DPA some good quality surplus equipment soon after the recent AP article appeared, in which they asked for donated gear. Can I reiterate my earlier post to the Forum, that they are grateful also to receive good quality surplus gear, but PLEASE NOT darkroom equipment, which they have already. If in doubt, contact Shirley Britton first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
