IDEAS?

["L.Werner-Crumrine" <LCRUM@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I came up with some fundraising ideas this morning and would like some feedback please.

 

I own a small art gallery where I sell my artwork as well as 6-7 other artists, I would like to take 10% of proceeds and donate to pd research. and/or have a fundraiser/party/art show.

 

my questions are:  how do I do this without calling attention to myself  and my pd or have it seem like a marketing ploy?  I don't want it to seem like I should be pitied or looked at and scrutinized, ("well you look fine").  I don't want people to look at my art, look at me and think how amazing  it is that I can do what I do or buy my art because of that.

 

I also would like the source of flyers that I could have in the gallery that folks could pick up and read about pd, especially young onset.

 

anyone have ideas, info, suggestions.

 

also, where do you think the best place to direct any donations would be?

I am thinking mjfox foundation

 

thanks
