Prints for the floods in Australia

Almost a year ago to the day we had our first Print Auction with all funds going to Haiti relief efforts. We raised over $3000 that were dispersed out between multiple charities and funds set up for clean up, water, medical care and so on. All of us would just like to say THANK YOU! Thank you to the buyers of the prints and thank you to the photographers who donated images. While some of us were not there to experience and help with the tragedy we did do something, and that counts.

This time around Dorothy at Polka Dot Bride contacted me about doing another auction for the floods in australia. All the funds will being going directly to Queensland fund that has been set up. http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html

While the auction did great and had even greater results we had many emails about purchasing the prints after the auction from the photographers. We realized that a lot more money could have been raised if we had a store of some sort to do so. So this time we have done just that. You can find all prints at http://shop.switchcities.com/ or from the link in the menu bar. All prints available are limited. They will be available in 16×24 prints and prices may vary between the photographers work.

Different prints will be going up through out the day as I receive them so bookmark the site and check back.

This store will be up for 1 week. Get the word out. Twitter about it. Facebook about it. Email. Whatever you need to do.

If you have any questions please email us directly at switchcities@gmail.com

Haiti Auction | Deuce

Our last auction was a success raising over $2600 for the relief in Haiti, thats all kinds of awesome. We received a ton of requests to do another auction and many photographers asked to donate a print. The talent out there is so impressive and everyone has been so inspiring that we could not say no.

Everything is basically the same, click the print (or the name above) that you are interested in and bid in the comments of the page. All comments must be done in the individual page of each print, no exceptions.

The funds raised this time will all go to a single decided upon charity who is helping out in Haiti right now. This will be done after the auction and all donations will be made in the name of the winners.

We will be adding a couple more photos through out the day so keep a look out for them. We are extremely inundated with requests from photogs to donate; we are encouraging everyone to organize and do a similar event on your own sites. One photographer has already done so, go check out the work on her blog as well —> http://erinlassahn.com/blog/?p=1826

If you have any questions please use the contact form to get in touch with one of us or see the auction details page.

Keep up with us and details on our twitter page —> http://twitter.com/switchcities.com

Thanks

Scotty
