New DPC Prints on sale for DSWF Charity - thankyou

08/19/2004 10:04:38 AM · #1

I'd like to invite you to view the first images in a new series of prints that I am selling to raise funds for the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation. All prints included in this project include 'DSWF' in the image title.

DSWF achieves real results in conservation by supporting trusted, reputable individuals and organisations operating in the field. Lean on administration, generous on funding, money raised makes a direct difference to the survival of wildlife around the world.

Drew and Langdon have kindly agreed to donate their profit too so 100% of profts from every print sold will be passed directly to the DSWF to be spent on helping wildlife survive.

My current intention is to run this project to the end of this year, perhaps longer.

Additional prints are being added shortly including elephants, giraffes and other gorgeous Kenyan wildlife.

If you like any of the images please consider buying one and please pass this information on to anyone you know who has an interest in animals, in conservation, in Africa or anything related.

Thank you so much for your time

Kavita

What a wonderful way to "give back", Kavita! I wish you much success in your endeavor to raise money for the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation :-D

Thank you Ellen!

You are most welcome!

I wonder if I may ask a question? On your storefront page, you have a nice introduction to your work to the left of the images (in that blue box that states how many prints you have available). I've been clicking about but I can't seem to figure out how to update mine. Can you tell me how to do that?

Of course!

If you go to:

My Home (here at DPChallenge)
My Preferences

you have a box at the bottom left.

Yes, I have one of those big kitties earmarked!

Kavita, how long will you have these prints available as revenue generating prints for the foundation?

At least to the end of 2004. Perhaps longer, depending on how much/little I raise by then. Lots of referrals today but am still waiting for the first sale for this project to get it off the ground! If you like big cats I'm adding some lion and lioness shots shortly.

Beautiful prints Kavey! My favs are 'As One' and 'Morning Thoughts', colours and details are superb. Hadn't heard of David Shepherd, his artistic work and wildlife foundation till I saw it here.......a great man and a very worthy cause.

Thank you and good news - I just made the first sale on a DSWF print and we're on the way!

I will be adding some more lion shots shortly, some of same lioness and some of a beautiful male with impressive mane. I also have some great ele images to share and will load them too.

David is a lovely man; completely barmy (looks and sounds somewhat like Michael Palin) but very intelligent, hardworking and passionately dedicated to his cause.

I saw some cheetah at Fossil Rim in Texas, but there's nothing like seeing them in the wild. Nice shots.

Nice shots, Kavey. Hope the sales are going well - what are you up to now?

08/23/2004 04:44:34 AM · #23

Thanks!

Not as well as I'd hoped. I've only sold two prints, one small size and one 8x10.

If anyone knows any friends who may be interested, please pass the information on. You know DPC Prints pack and post worldwide.

Also if you know of any public buildings looking for inexpensive wall decor, maybe they might be interested, local libraries etc with low decoration budgets?

Anyone know any actual interior decorators, would they be interested?

I'd appreciate any and all help in raising as much as I can for this cause.
