Hello there True Believers, the season of giving is now upon us. The Marvel Report and The Perky Nerd comicbook store are teaming up for a Thanksgiving fundraiser for veterans to collect supplies for the Bob Brinker Memorial Veterans Foundation. The Bob Brinker Foundation is an organization dedicated to making sure no veterans are left behind or forgotten once they return home from service.
Here is how you can help and win some cool prizes in return.
In order to support the veterans who have risked their lives for our freedom the Bob Brinker Foundation is in need of specific items including:
- Men’s & Women’s white socks
- Packaged snacks & pastries
- Bottles of water
- Plastic Utensils
- Napkins & paper plates
- Paper & plastic cups
- Coffee station items (sugar, creamer, etc.)
- Condiments
- Hygiene products
- Blankets, bedding, & sleeping bags
- Metro tap cards
These items will be used to make backpacks to pass out to homeless veterans in the Los Angeles area.
On Saturday, November 19th bring any of the above listed items to The Perky Nerd located at 1606 W. Magnolia Blvd. in Burbank, CA from 4-6 pm. For each item donated you will receive a raffle ticket to bid on an art print of your choice.
Pieces like this sweet Agents of SHIELD one from Lord Mesa featuring Daisy, Coulson, and Lola:
Or this beautiful Agent Carter one from Patrick Scullin:
Or these stunning Avengers origins images from the Ninjabot:
That is just small a taste of what you can win! There will be lots more art on November 19th including pieces from Patrick Ballesteros, Allen Helbig, and Justin Harder.
The drawing will take place at 5:30 pm. There will also be a photo booth and snacks. Come enjoy a good time for a good cause at an awesome local comicbook shop.
