The Angel Art Doll Fundraiser is Finally Here!

Lauri Jean Crowe, Michigan Chapter Leader, has recruited artists of all ages and skill levels to create and donate one-of-a-kind angel themed art dolls. The first eBay auction with artisans from around the world and 50 Art Doll Angel Creations begins today! Visit http://stores.ebay.com/SpyderMum-Collectible-Arts to bid on and admire these beautiful pieces of art that symbolize hope for many patients suffering from Nephrotic Syndrome, FSGS and related diseases.

These unique angel art dolls will only be available to bid on for one week, so make sure you act fast and place your bids. Funds raised from auction sales will be donated directly to NephCure.

The Art Doll Angel Project was initially going to be a one-time event, but response was so overwhelming, Lauri Jean decided to make it a seasonal occasion instead, and auctions will take place four times each year. Other auctions will take place starting December 21, 2004, March 21, 2005, and June 21, 2005 in one week periods.

You can contribute to upcoming auctions by creating an art doll of any size, shape, form or medium. Involving your scout troop, art class, art association or civic organization can be fun and will bring hope to many who suffer from Nephrotic Syndrome, FSGS and related diseases. To contribute as an artist for upcoming auctions, email Michigan@nephcure.org.
