Update: A total of USD$1620 dollars was raised and donated to the Blog Action Day Poverty Fund – thank you everyone for your support!

To celebrate my blog’s 1st birthday (November 7th) I have been working hard to put together this massive project for my readers, the design community and charity.

There is a total of 66 different prizes worth exactly $11,000 all up so there will be 66 lucky winners.

100% of all proceeds will go to the Blog Action Day Poverty Fund.

To Enter… Please Read Very Carefully

There are two ways you can enter and you can do both for a maximum of two entries per person. All entries will be checked before any prizes are given.

Entry 1: Donate To Charity

To enter the competition you may donate to charity…. All money goes to the global fund that helps fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria – some of the leading causes of poverty.

Instructions:

There are two options – via Change.org or via PayPal.

I have been told that sometimes a ‘server error’ message is being displayed on Change.org, please be patient and try again at another time or use PayPal instead, the donate button is below.

Change.Org

If you choose to go through change.org money will go straight into the global fund account and will not touch my hands. If you do not have a credit card, you may choose to use PayPal. If you choose to use change.org the instructions are below.

  1. Go to the Just Creative Design Blog Action Day Fundraiser Page.
  2. Click the blue ‘Donate Now’ button.
  3. Fill out the page, please donate a minimum of $5. (Heh, it’s only a coffee!) Ensure you leave a donation comment so your entry counts. You can donate from any country as long as you have a credit card, don’t get fooled by the billing address being US states.

PayPal

By request I have also set up a PayPal donation page. You can donate by clicking the donate button below. I will collect the donations here and then donate the funds to the global fund at the end of the project.

Entry 2: Write An Article (even without a blog)

For those of you who do not have a credit card or are limited in funds, there is another alternative, you can write an article – hence the design group writing project! I will compile all the entries at the end of the competition.

Instructions:

  1. Write an article related to design. Even if you are not a designer, you could make a list of your favourite designs or list your favourite websites, books, photos? There are no boundaries… just relate the article some how back to design… be creative.
  2. If you don’t have a blog go to step 3, if you have a blog, continue reading. When you post your article on your blog, ensure you leave a trackback to this post so I can track your article or preferably, link back to this article / home page in the first paragraph. Please make the post at least 500 words.
  3. If you don’t have a blog, send me an article in a Word or HTML document to my email address. Ensure it is at least 500 words, with no slang and with your best spelling. I will post some of the best entries on this blog.

Deadline & How To Win

Entries will close November 22nd GMT+11. There will be 1 prize per person.

A list of all the people who have donated and all the people who have written an article will be compiled and then submitted into random.org where it will output a persons name with a prize number. This makes the selection totally random. Winners will be announced the same week.

  1. Sorry to the 7 people who commentated on this post in the past 35 minutes. Something extremely strange happened… this post deleted itself along with 7 comments without any reason… it was lucky I had a backup of this post.

    My best guess was that the post didn’t save properly when I updated the post because of my slow internet speed (capped to 56k).

    Anyway, glad that I got it back and good luck!

  3. Just incredible… the list just didn’t end, hehe. Fantastic idea and amazing prizes all in one post!

    I did have a question though: some of these prizes are directly dependant on the fact that you have to live in America. Does that mean that people from let’s say Europe (Holland to be more precise) are excluded from this contest/happening? I would love to give it a shot, but it would be a bit hard for me to come to America (unless you can send a prize to an alternative address since i’m visiting my girlfriend’s parents between December 19th and January 3rd) 🙂

    Eitherway, good luck with everything and good luck tó everyone participating! This is going to be one húge party 🙂

  4. Happy Birthday Just Creative Design and good luck with the campaign Jacob. My article is in (check the trackback), donation has been made for a great cause and your article has been stumbled, dugg, blogged, bannered up and delicioused for good measure.

  5. This is quite a collection of prizes. That camera looks awesome! It’s neat that you’re using this as an opportunity to raise money for charity, too. Very admirable.

    One small note, the last Flickr Pro account, check what blog Mr. Caleb is from 😉 (hint: it’s not CC!)

  6. Pingback: The Days of Static Design Visuals are Dead | How To Present Web Design | BrianYerkes.com

  7. Google Reader gave me both the old and new post – so for future reference, if it randomly deletes again and you don’t have a back-up copy, just find someone with reader. 🙂

    Great selection of prizes and such! And I love the idea of actually having to participate to get a prize.

    My only quirk – some of these things I could not use since I’m not a professional designer (logo design, web design and such) and am still developing my skills. But other prizes would definitely help me do so, and I’d love to enter for them. Is there any way to get around this? I wouldn’t want to take a prize that I couldn’t use that would actually be helpful to someone else – if that made any sense!

    Great contest, though! And happy birthday to the blog!

  11. Lisa, Penflare,
    You are welcome, good luck!

    Joram,
    Yeah it was a bit like that… took a while to do the pictures – that was when I thought it wouldn’t end but it makes it look so much better.

    Re your questions: Some of the prizes such as the Photoshop world tickets are for US residents however you can still receive them if you wish even if you live elsewhere, but you may not have use for them… You could sell them, pass them on or give them away on your own blog. I will also accept prizes back so I can give them to others.

    Jacob,
    Thank you for the promotion Jacob and the repost of your comment! Yeah quite a bit in just a year… my goal was to have 1000 subscribers by the end of the year.

    Jason,
    Thank you Jason 🙂

    Lauren,
    Thanks for that Lauren. Also fixed up that typo.

    George,
    Thank you for your article, it seems the trackback didn’t work either.

    Maggie,
    Thanks for that, just checked my Reader and it gave me two posts also.
    Regarding your question, see my reply to Joram. Thank you.

  15. Doh! That *was* strange. One minute it was here, and then it wasn’t…

    I’ve Twittered about and announced this awesome gwp over on Group Writing Projects:

    Just Creative Design’s $11,000 Design Group Writing Project for Charity

    Also, one thing I mentioned before the first post’s disappearing act was…

    Happy Anniversary!

    This blog has had a phenomenal first year and I’m sure the best is yet to come. Jacob, you’re an inspiration in showing what can be accomplished in so little time. Kudos!

  19. Just posted my entry on LogoDesign.org (hope you don’t mind if I enter, even though I’m sponsoring a prize), I posted a trackback to your post but Joomla is weird with trackbacks so it may not have gotten through, in case it didn’t here’s the link to my entry:

    Anyhow, Happy Blog Anniversary, Jacob. Keep up the amazing work!
    Good luck to all participants.

  25. Happy Birthday Just Creative Design Blog! Your Charity Group Writing Project is a great idea – Thank you for doing such a wonderful thing. I will announce it on my blogs and community!

  64. What a great (and large) contest Jacob!

    This is incredible! I’ve gone ahead and donated via PayPal in hopes that I can snag the Olympus digital camera! I’ve been stuck with a really bad Fuji camera for a long time now and I desperately need a more professional one.

    All of the other prizes look great as well!

    Can’t wait to see how much money is raised for charity.

  65. Thank you everyone!

    Leigh,
    I don’t see it getting anywhere close to the $11,000 however I am hoping around the $1,000. That was my goal anyway.

    Sam,
    That is fine, thank you 🙂

  67. I’ve not been able to give a lot, unfortunately, but I’ve just made a donation. It sounds like a great cause!

    Fingers crossed for a win — I’ve got my eye on the camera, business card printing and the FreshBooks sub
    …and, of course, the Omni love chair! That’d be a wicked addition to the flat!

    Cheers, Jacob!

  131. Hey Jacob,

    Great to see this initiative and a job well done.

    I’ve watched your TedEx video namely Building your personal foundation last night. It was really brilliant. You were very nervous, but you just were PERFECT because you really focused on being yourself.

    🙂 Thanks for the inspiration.
