See below for rules, links, and other pertinent information!
Rules for entry:
The charity we have selected for this event is the Palestinian Childrenās Relief Fund, an organization that has been around for over 30 years helping get humanitarian aid to the children of Palestine. One $5 USD donation to PCRF = one entry.
Every $5 USD that you donate will get you one entry. You may make as many entries as you wish during the raffle time frame. (For example, a $20 USD donation will get you four entries.) If you are outside of the US, please donate the amount in your currency that equals $5 USD per entry.
If for some reason you cannot donate to PCRF specifically, but would like to join by donating to another charity or fundraiser, please reach out to us first.
You must be 18+ to enter. We will be checking your blog for a clear age indicator.
To enter, either fill out our form or send an ask directly to our ask box. You must attach proof of donation to your entry. PCRF will send you a donation receipt in your email. This will have the time and date of your donation. Please use that email to screenshot your proof. This screenshot must include the time, date, and amount of donation. We ask for this specifically to prevent people from submitting duplicates. Here is an example of the email, with the time, date, and donation amount highlighted in yellow:
Please submit this proof either via the Google form below, or via our ask box (either off anon or with your blog URL). Please be sure to redact any private information, such as your email address and your name.
There will be a total of 12 winners:
One winner will receive a 2-character half body colored artwork from @/haio_won (Twitter). (The winner for this option will require a Twitter account to communicate with the artist). The art will be in full color, with no background or a simple color background.
One winner will receive a 2-character colored YCH artwork from @bloompompom. See above photo for YCH poses (choice of yellow or pink).
Two winners will receive art from @rossithepixie. One winner will receive a 2-character colored artwork. The other will receive a stylized portrait of 1 character.

There will be no repeat winners. Winners will be chosen by the ficsforgaza mods via random number generator on December 25.
Winners will be contacted via Tumblr DMs by one of the mods. Please have your DMs open to blogs you donāt follow, and/or your ask box open to anons. If we cannot reach you within a suitable time frame, we will select another winner.
Once you have been selected, you will be responsible for communicating with the artist directly on what you would like to do for your art, including supplying poses, characters, clothing, and other references. The time frame at which the art will be delivered to you is up to the artistās discretion. Acceptance of the specifics of your request is up to the artistās discretion (for example: if you request something that they cannot create for you, please work with them to request something else).
When requesting art, please abide by the artistsās individual rules and requests. Do not post artwork without credit/permission from the artist. Do not use their art for commercial purposes or for use with AI/NFTs. Do not claim their art as your own. Above all, please respect the artists who have dedicated their time and efforts to this event.

lol that person was so mad for no reason like this is tumblr block what you donāt like!!! what an asshole
i wish we couldāve had a civil conversation, but they immediately assumed a condescending, snarky tone. if youāre that upset about someone elseās opinion, you should probably block and move on for your own wellbeing.
Alsoooo imo it takes a lot of talent to write something so good and compelling while keeping the word count low, and thatās something I think you do incredibly well :) <3
lexi PLEASE youāre going to make me all emoāthank you so much for your kind words š„ŗ i have lots of room for improvement, but iām constantly evolving and trying to do better! everyone has their own writing style, and all of it has a place in fandom.
KAE HI Iāve missed you welcome back <33333 I wanted to be fun and silly but Iām ready to throw hands with the anons youāre getting rn >:( Iām sorry people are being weirdos about you expressing your own opinions on your own blog
LEXIIIIII i missed you, too :ā-) iām *mostly* glad to be back LMAO. unforch i canāt say anything without someone getting upset, but i wonāt let others stop me from expressing myself. i wanted to think that what i was saying was uncontroversial, but i think those asks showed that i did indeed hit a nerve. i wish some people were more capable of self reflection! but this is tumblr and you really canāt expect too much.

Iām so tired right now but seeing someone be an asshole i just wanted to drop in and give you a tight hug. I really hope they donāt ruin your night because what they have to say isnāt the be all end all and is clearly an attempt to antagonize. A troll quite clearly.
Iām happy to see you back on my dash and i hope you have a good weekend š
thank you, sweet rossi <3 they absolutely did not ruin my night! i shouldnāt have engaged, but iām sleep-deprived, stressed, and temperamental right now. i got a little heated, but itās a topic i feel strongly about and have every right to express as this is my blog.
i hope you have sweet dreams and a wonderful weekend ahead!
itās so funny that youāre being a warrior for this lame ass opinion as if it doesnāt basically tattle to everyone youāre insecure about your own lacking talents š anyone can summarize a story in a few paragraphs. thatās what it is, a summary !! a story being told does not automatically make it fic writing !! acting like your 300 words is a āficā is delusional. thatās hardly even a drabble and itās okay to admit that honey š no one said you didnāt have a place in fandom but acting like you can compare your work to actual lengthy, detailed, and time-committed content is so pathetic
this is the last of your asks that iām going to answer as you are clearly talking to me in bad faith. but if my opinion is so lame, why are you engaging with it? youāre free to move on and block me if iām so pathetic.
a lot of our personal opinions are formed by our own experiences, thoughts, and insecurities; this is part of being human. thank you for pointing out something so blatantly obvious.
i never claimed that my short fics are on par with long fics. but i also put hours of work into my prose, and it shows. iāve read plenty of long-form writing that couldāve been told more concisely, is hard to follow, and is annoyingly repetitive as a result. quantity doesnāt equal qualityāhave you ever heard of that adage before? or are you truly as ignorant as you come across here?

people are constantly talking about the writing tags being filled up by non writing, which is a completely valid criticism. but iāve witnessed others go so far as to claim that works of writing under a certain word count donāt belong in the tags, as they āarenāt fics,ā but instead are drabble or thirsts or headcanons.
as far as iām concerned, a fic is any piece of writing that tells a story. you can tell a story in as little as a couple hundred wordsāthere is no minimum word count, no formatting guidelines, no requirements. i say this as someone who consistently struggles to write anything longer than 1500 words. does that make me any less of a writer than someone who only publishes fics with 10k+ words? for a long time, i thought it meant exactly that. but iāve come to see things differently.
the beauty of fandom is that weāre all here as a hobby. the goal is to build community, to exchange thoughts and ideas, and to create art. why would we discourage others from expressing themselves through their own means? maybe english isnāt someoneās first language, so they struggle to write anything longer than a few paragraphs; maybe someone has a demanding job and can only write little blurbs here and there; maybe someone just doesnāt have the capacity to write anything substantial; does that mean that they shouldnāt share their work or be proud of it?
you donāt have to like the formats in which others choose to express themselves, but you shouldnāt outright dismiss them or invalidate their efforts, either. at the end of the day, weāre all humans trying to cope with the hardships of day-to-day existence. fandom should be more inclusive and understanding.
