The Wayne Foundation Charity RPG Bundle update – $200+ of great stuff for $25

Mark your calendars for Friday, May 4th. That’s when The Wayne Foundation Charity RPG Pack will be available for sale! We already have over $200 worth of product included, which will sell for $25.  At the moment you’ll be getting 88% off the total cost of everything in the bundle, but it will get better.  We’re still accepting product to include, and will be doing so until April 30th (if you want to help us out and donate something, get in touch) and I fully expect to add more over the next 10 days.

Who’s in so far? Here’s a list of publishers and authors who are taking part as of right now:

There are 43 different products available which cover Dungeons & Dragons 4e, Pathfinder/OGL, G-Core, FATE, ICONS, Traveller, many complete indie RPG games, print and play board games and original works of fiction. It looks like we’ll have some original artwork to include as well and perhaps a few other surprises if I can work them out.

We’ve gotten that fancy new logo you see above, courtesy of Jeremy who’s work you should certainly check out! Interested in seeing what titles are included? Read on!

Tabletop Gamers – a love letter

Early morning on the 15th of September, before the sun had risen, I uploaded the Wayne Foundation Charity RPG Pack to DriveThruRPG.  Within two hours, with no advertising, three people had ponied up their $15 to purchase it.  By the time 24 hours had passed – our first day in a 15 day sale, we had sold over $810 worth of charity packs, raising over $520 dollars for the Wayne Foundation.

Thank you.

It says a lot, in my eyes, that people from all around the world will jump in to support causes like this. I’ve seen it time and time again on DriveThruRPG when natural disasters cause huge amounts of human suffering, or when gamers get together to support a charitable organization they believe in.  It’s always been a great feeling.

When you’re the one spearheading an effort to get something done, that feeling is magnified.  I’m very proud of our community and proud to be a part of it.  The indie press publisher who contributed their products to this bundle, the folks at DriveThruRPG for helping me put this together, and everyone out there who’s purchased it, helped spread the word and sent words of encouragement my way. You are all amazing.

To get on with a bit of housekeeping – there’s some great news for charity pack purchasers.  The Impossible Dream have stepped up and asked to be included, adding their Ennie award winning horror game Dread to the charity pack.  If you’ve already purchased this, just return to the charity pack page on DriveThruRPG and download the dread-already-purchased.zip file.   New buyers will find Dread already included in the Wayne Foundation Charity Pack.zip and need not download the second .zip file.

Any help you’d be able to give spreading the word about this over the next 14 days would also be greatly appreciated!  Social networks, email, blogs… if you need anything by way of images, blurbs or lists of product, get in touch with me and I’ll happily provide them.

I expect the first day of sales to be the largest but would love to show up on the Wayne Foundation’s virtual doorstep with a nice big donation, so every sale from now to the 30th of September counts a great deal!

Finally, I’ve just confirmed that I’ll be at Total Confusion XXVI in Mansfield MA this coming February 23-26.  This is a great gaming convention and I’d encourage anyone within travel distance to stop in and hang out! Attendance runs just under a thousand, which means there’s enough people to always find a game or hang out with, but not so many that you’ll be lost in a crowd.  I hope to see you there!

The Wayne Foundation Charity RPG Pack is here!

The Reason

Hello, my name is Jamie Walton – founder and president of The Wayne Foundation.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, child prostitution has become an epidemic crime with victim estimates ranging between 300,000 and 800,000 children internationally.

Human trafficking, domestic trafficking, and child prostitution are crimes that can befall any child, anywhere, and at any time. I was once one of these children. Like so many other victims my abusers were never arrested for their crimes. I felt as if no one loved me or cared about what happened to me.

It has taken me many years to come to terms with the horrendous abuse I experienced as a child. Now, I am breaking my silence in the hope that I can give a voice to children who are today’s victims.

Every day, thousands of children in the United States are bought and sold for the purposes of sex.

With your help, we can give them a way out and a chance to start a new life.

The Wayne Foundation’s vision is for a world without child slavery. Our mission is to provide young women who have fallen victim to commercial sexual exploitation and domestic trafficking with a means of leaving the sex industry for good. The Wayne Foundation is committed to fighting human trafficking, child prostitution & child sex exploitation one victim at a time by providing individuals with a safe home environment that will empower them with the tools they will need to stop the cycle of abuse.

It is our intent to stop commercial sex exploitation within the United States through direct victim assistance, public outreach, and by directly working with those who shape the policies and statutes which impact victims and their abusers.

Where you come in

Every cent of profit made from this bundle will go directly to The Wayne Foundation to help them accomplish this mission. Not only will you get some great RPG and board game products, but you’ll be helping Jamie and her foundation get off the ground and in to action.

You can listen to an amazing interview with Jamie Walton, hosted by Kevin Smith which will give you a much more detailed idea of what Jamie went through as a child, and why she, with Kevin’s help, decided to start the Wayne Foundation. Here’s part one and part two.
