oh hey great

Call for photographers, artist, more: Help Mat & Harper!

By now, you’ve heard what happened to our friends Mat and Harper, thanks to the scam artist who bilked them out of $5100 in rent money - along with dozens of other San Francisco residents. And it’s not as if this is any old move for Mat and Harper: There’s a baby on the way!

What we do best, here on Tumblr, is help. So far, you guys have been wonderfully supportive during my own difficult time, and I know you go all out to raise money when anyone is in need. I haven’t needed any financial help (yet), but I know that if I did, you guys would be here for me.

There’s a general call to help our friends, thanks to Mike Monteiro. You can go that route.

I was also thinking that maybe some of us could do a little creative fundraising of our own. After all, you need art for your walls, and they need to get back the money to rent new walls.

So photographers, artists, more: Who would be interested in donating original artwork or prints to help raise money? I will happily donate prints. We can open a store or even an auction.

Let me know…
