ver-LARRY-nice

hey love! first of all kudos to you for wanting to learn german! If you need any help you can totally ask me (i can also recommend you some german music, i know english music helped me a lot at the beginning)

Second of all I am not from Germany but Austria but I do speak german, so it‘s like different country but the same language alskdjdhs. I am a dumbass when it comes to remembering things like that so the only people I can think of rn are @rainbowstyles and @1dhq but there also this lovely thing called locating larries made by @lovelylarrie where you can find people (also make sure to check out the Austria and Switzerland section).

Hey 1D fans

Remember when this happened? 

Remember how Louis especially loved it? 

What if we do it again, but this time in support of Louis and the entire Tomlinson-Deakin family?

Louis and his family is going to need so much support not just this week, but in the months to come. My idea is to take out a full-page ad somewhere — either in Billboard again or in a British paper — to show the Tomlinson-Deakins how much we as fans loved Jay and how much we are all there in any capacity possible to support them through this unthinkable loss.

I don’t know the specifics of what exactly to do, but I’m thinking maybe some of the artists in this fandom can come up with an image for the ad and we can think of a short message to the family to put in it. Maybe we could also list some charitable organizations on the ad so that it not only shows support for Louis’s family but also helps raise awareness and funds for leukemia research.

Then in the coming weeks, we can take out an ad displaying this for the family. If we raise the money to do this by Christmas/Louis’s birthday, that would be cool, but that’s kind of a short timeline, so perhaps we could get this done by the one month anniversary of Jay’s death (Jan. 7).

This is a very preliminary idea, so all suggestions and ideas are welcome. Let me know what you think!

IDEAS FOR HOW PEOPLE CAN HELP:

SHARE SHARE SHARE! If you like this idea, please reblog instead of liking the post. That way it is exposed to the maximum amount of people possible. I am but a small blog, so if you are friendly with bigger blogs or want to send this post to a bigger blog, please feel free to do so. That in itself would be a huge way to help. And if you are a big blog, please REBLOG this instead of liking it. 

FINANCIAL/ORGANIZATIONAL: This will require a decent amount of organization. We’ll need to decide on a publication for the ad, call that publication, find out how much it will cost and figure out the best way to collect money from donors that is safe and guarantees that money will go to the right place. If the idea takes off, I’d also like to set up a small website for the project so that people can get updates/donate/give feedback easily. If there is anyone who has experience in this or is interested in helping out with this aspect, please message me ASAP and we can talk further about how to coordinate. 

ARTISTIC: Calling on all fan artists or people who are friends with fan artists – we need an image to use. If you can draw one up and are willing to submit it, perhaps we could display all the artwork on the potential project website and have people vote on which image to use. Or we could do a giant collab? Again, if you have interest in this, please message me ASAP
