Update:
DRAW DATED EXTENDED. Since there are still some pledges for this fundraising Raffle I have postponed the draw until tomorrow evening,17 November. Thank you so much for many donations received so far, big and small. The target amount was raised in less than a week.
Donating £2 or more enters you into the raffle to to win an original Este MacLeod created from the 'tell me a story' template as used for the #Lettergardens drawing project, #Big Draw 2105. For every £2 donated you will get a virtual raffle ticket. The hope is to raise £300 for this important charity. Sight is so important, and all too often taken for granted. 100% of donations for Sightsavers, a charity focussing on curing blindness, a condition that can be prevented in many. See more info on http://www.sightsavers.org/
The winner of the painting will have it shipped at no additional cost, regardless of location.
