Support Team Turbine this Movember!
We're raising awareness about men's health issues, and raising money for some good causes! Team Turbine is supporting this month-long effort, and we would love your help!
What is Movember? From the official Movember page FAQ:
Movember is the month formerly known as November, where men and women across the globe join together to raise awareness and funds for men’s health. Men grow and women support a Mo (moustache) for 30 days becoming walking, talking billboards. Movember supports world-class men’s health programs that combat prostate and testicular cancer.
Men who support Movember, called Mo Bros, start by registering at Movember.com. Mo Bros start Movember 1st clean-shaven, then grow and groom their Mo, for the rest of the month, raising money along the way. Women who support Movember, called MO SISTAS, also start by registering at Movember.com. MO SISTAS champion the Mo by registering and supporting the Mo Bros in their life, spreading the important message of men’s health, leading a team and organizing events.
If you are interested in helping to support this effort, please consider donating as little or as much as you are willing to; even a couple of bucks can make a big difference! You can click here to support me (the money I raise goes into the pool for the team), or click here to donate to Team Turbine as a whole.
You can find out more about Movember's financials, and specifics about where the money goes, here.
I'm starting with a $1000 goal for this year. Last year we managed to raise $2510 for men's health!
UPDATE 11/4/14: Now - with encouragements to donate! :)
Individual Incentives:**
$50 - Custom Forum Title*
$75 - Winter Wolf Pup
$100 - Cordovan will lead or run a group for you and your friends, using a non-admin standard character, on your server! I'll run whatever you want.
Group Incentives***:
$250 - Cordovan will award five 500 Turbine Point codes to randomly-selected donors** ACHIEVED! 11/4/14 - Thank You!
$500 - Cordovan will award an additional ten 500 Turbine Point codes to randomly-selected donors**
$1000 - Cordovan will award an additional ten 500 Turbine Point codes to randomly-selected donors**
NOTES: Prizes are cumulative, so an individual who donates $100 would receive the Winter Wolf Pup, the ability to **** Cordovan in a preferred PvP pit, and a Custom Forum Title.
Anyone who donates at least $5.00 to this effort is eligible to be in the drawing for the Turbine Point codes.
*Forum Titles must follow the Community Guidelines, and be appropriate. The definition of "Appropriate" will be determined by the DDO Community Team. The title must also meet the requirements for the web site, so long titles may not be possible.
**Cordovan will do his best to award the prize, so please make sure that you are able to be contacted if you wish to receive a prize. If you prefer to donate to Team Turbine as a whole, please send Cordovan a forum PM to let him know that you donated to the team and would be interested in being entered for the drawings.
***Group incentives will be based on milestones taken from Cordovan's individual Movember page, along with donations made to the Turbine-Powered Moustaches page that are meant to be part of the "DDO pool". If you donate to the group, rather than Cordovan individually, please PM Cordovan through the forums here to make your donation count toward the group incentives (and to help him award you the individual incentives.)
