This blog post on Deviant art's World Cosplay Group touch me some inside and for a good cause.
Every Family has been plauged by a cancer of some kind. With the donations and by spreading the word can help a lot.

Quote:
Co-Founder reekavalentyne and Founder exilefayt have a message we'd like to share from BLiTZ Cosplay to everyone who has been touched by cancer.

As most of you know, October is breast cancer awareness month. We hope you will all read the following message and hope those who are able to will donate or walk:


BLiTZ has always been about team work, about having fun, and generally about caring for our fellow man. We love to cosplay, we love to meet new people, and now we love to HELP people.

Recently we heard that the mother of a friend of ours was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Cait's [BLiTZ' Zelda] immediate thought was to do a cancer walk in her honor.... With that thought in mind, Cait brought up the idea of a COSPLAY cancer walk to Erika and Mark.

We are now OFFICIALLY launching our new project, COSPLAY FOR A CURE.

Visit our website at www.cosplayforacure.org and donate or sign up to walk with us today!

Spread the word!



The Website again is:

Cosplayers helping people >w<
I'd like to do one in my town. Maybe this can be my Anime Club's charity work, I'll try to convince'em to do it. Plus it gives me another excuse to cosplay.
I really do hope it becomes a nationwide thing.

I would so love to donate or something but I live too far away and as most cosplayers are: I'm broke! T^T
Hope they do it in Phoenix! ^-^ I'll wear a cosplay that day though in "I'm thinking of you guys" support. ^-^

Hey guys I am the Leader of BLiTZ Cosplay and one of the founding members of Cosplay for a Cure. The amount of support CFAC ha been getting is amazing! Thank you! But we are still far off from our goal. Tell your friends, family, anyone that will listen! Lets make a difference, together!

This caught the attention of multiple members of my cosplay group and we all ended up presenting it to each other not realizing that the others had already seen it. XD
We all think it's a great idea and we're going to try to do something in our area.

:O So close, but so far...I'd love to do it or something similar, but I don't have the time to get to Boston. x,x Grrrr....*makes a note and begins to make plans!*

I already talked to The Boss, I shall post in the forum for our cons about it ^^

sounds sweet, but sadly you won't get a cure, there either is a cure and we won't get it, or cancer is just a hoax.
