Charity
MarsCon 2014 Charity Auction proceeds will go to the Gordy Dickson Memorial Scholarship Fund.
The Gordon Dickson Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 2002 for three purposes:
- To honor Gordy Dickson, local fan and science fiction and fantasy pro writer who died in 2001.
- To collect money to send potential new writers to the Clarion Workshop for SF and fantasy writers or some other workshop. Gordy always encouraged new writers.
- To promote accord in Twin Cities fandom by having a project that various fan clubs and individual fans can work on together.
We are also hosting a food drive for Twin Cities’ Second Harvest Heartland. Please consider helping out in one or more of these ways:
- Donate an item for the live auction. (Bright, shiny objects a fan would love.)
- Donate a canned food item for the food drive.
- If you donate in the name of your favorite party room, that party will receive recognition at Closing Ceremonies.
- Bid on charity auction items. (No bid is too high.)
- Help out as a runner or organizer for the charity auction.
If you are planning to host any charitable activities or events at MarsCon, we would be happy to include them in our program as well. You may contact us via e-mail: info$suffex. Thank you for your generosity!
