Site Update
The Cracked Teacup is a custom creator that will create a Teacup Mouse (with up to 30% edits) and is a reward that we will give you in exchange for a donation to a charity or organization that helps with HIV/AIDS research, treatment, support, etc.
HIV/AIDS affects millions of people worldwide, and their loved ones. Despite the stereotypes associated with this disease, HIV/AIDS can infect anyone, regardless of sexuality, gender, race, geography, income, or any of the factors we typically use to divide ourselves. The common denominator in those suffering from HIV/AIDS is the very thing that connects us together--our humanity.
Therefore, we encourage you to help a fellow human being out and make an impact on their life with a donation that can fund research for a cure, treatment, and other resources.

The Cracked Teacup item you receive can then be used to create a custom Teacup Mouse, beautifully done by Phee (#18786). If tea alone doesn't make you feel better, maybe the cute little mouse will help!
Below are the details for how to obtain a Cracked Teacup from a donation:
- Donate a minimum of $10 USD* (or equivalent) to a non-profit charity/organization of your choice that supports HIV/AIDS research, resources, efforts, etc.
- Send an e-mail to me with your proof of donation/receipt; the address to use is [email protected]. When emailing, please include your name and user ID, otherwise I won't know who to deliver the Cracked Teacup to!
- Donation must be made and proof turned in by May 27th, 2014 at 11:59 p.m. but the Cracked Teacup item itself works indefinitely.
*We will give you a Cracked Teacup for every 10 USD (or equivalent) increment you donate to an appropriate non-profit charity/organization. So if you donate $10, you will get 1 Cracked Teacup. If you donate $50, you will get 5 Cracked Teacups. If you donate $15, you will get 1 Cracked Teacup.
Above is Kei's custom Teacup Mouse, Ciel!
If you're looking for information on HIV/AIDS or suggested places to donate, here are a few resources:
amfAR | UNICEF | UN AIDS | ACET International | AVERT
Any non-profit HIV/AIDS charity or organization is acceptable -- there is no requirement about the organization being local, national, in a particular country, etc. If you have any questions about whether or not the one you're planning on donating to would be acceptable, or any other related inquiries, feel free to PM or email me or Kei (#4690). :3
Thank you, and let's clink our teacups to a cure!

Although I don't have money to donate, I can always very much appreciate events where they have SCCs to remind people to donate. I think it's fun way to support a good cause. How awesome and what a great SCC. c^: I hope many of you who can afford it, consider donating.

Oh! Hey, the AIDS LifeCycle ride is coming up really soon, and it benefits the San Francisco AIDS Foundation and the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center. My uncle is doing the ride for the fifth time this year, and if anybody wants to donate to him, that'd be awesome!
You can donate here!

This is wonderful, but it always seems donations are asked for right at the end of the month, where a lot of people have little to no money to donate.=/
