[Update: The drawing is complete (I used a random number generator to choose randomly), and the winner is Nathaniel. \u00a0I’ll reach out to him to coordinate delivery. \u00a0Thank you to everyone who contributed]<\/p>\n
I’ll admit it, I was tempted. \u00a0I want to win. \u00a0And winning means raising money. \u00a0And big donations are very attractive. \u00a0So, yes,\u00a0when I decided to give away the painting above (click the image to view the whole thing) to a donor, I considered putting a high ceiling on the donation amount that would take it.<\/p>\n
But then I thought better of it. \u00a0I want the “regular” people I’m fighting for to have an opportunity to get unique campaign memorabilia just as much as a wealthy person who can contribute to a campaign more easily. \u00a0So I decided to level the playing field.<\/p>\n
Make a donation of any size this week (by 11:59 pm on Saturday 2\/25). \u00a0Then write a comment on this blog post telling me why your donation was meaningful to you.<\/p>\n
I’ll choose the winner on Sunday morning, and make arrangements to deliver the painting ASAP after that, ideally in person, depending on geography and other circumstances.<\/p>\n
The painting was\u00a0painted in late January 2017 at Art of Merlot<\/a>, a wonderful local company. \u00a0Not surprisingly, I didn’t exactly follow the official class painting guide. \u00a0It’s no masterpiece, but it is pure Noah.<\/p>\n So don’t wait. Visit the\u00a0Donate<\/a>\u00a0page and write that comment here. \u00a0We’ve got exciting plans for events and outreach, and we need your help to make it happen!<\/p>\n Thanks!<\/p>\n Noah<\/p>\n Like what you see? \u00a0Please:<\/p>\n [Update: The drawing is complete (I used a random number generator to choose randomly), and the winner is Nathaniel. \u00a0I’ll reach out to him to coordinate delivery. \u00a0Thank you to everyone who contributed] I’ll admit it, I was tempted. \u00a0I want to win. \u00a0And winning means raising money. \u00a0And big donations are very attractive. \u00a0So, […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":300,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1123,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299\/revisions\/1123"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noahdyer.com\/campaign\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
