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!

I agree with Erithan, it would be fantastic if these donation events that have happened a few times now would be put at the beginning of a month, or at least extended a few days past the beginning of a month. It would likely earn more donations, too.
I have my Watch Dogs preorder to pay off so I probably can't scrape up even $10, even though it's a cause I care greatly about and has a bonus super cute mouse. I might try, regardless, but not likely since I don't get paid until the second, since the first is a Sunday. .. and I had a nice mishap with Paypal that lost me $110 this month that they won't refund so that's not working in my favor right now.
Consider the time of month thing though, please!

I'm definitely going to donate 30 right now! I hope an online receipt of the transaction will be enough, because that's all I will get >

Is there any possible chance this might be extended into the first week of June? If these were put out the last week or two of a month and the first week of the following month, it would encompass and allow for a lot more people to be able to donate. Again not meaning this as a negative, hope lots of funds are raised!
