ChatEvent & Raffle

 We will be hosting a Christmas-themed chatevent as a part of this project with games and  to be won 

 We will also be hosting a raffle for the participants of the SecretSanta Project. However, I can't confirm at this time exactly how many winners there will be or many are up for grabs because we're still taking contributions for this part of the Project.

You can help by contributing points using the donation widget on AlexanderPaupoff's profile; just mention 'For SecretSanta Project' in the comments when you donate

I'm also taking 150 - 200 chibi commissions over at moria-tea, the points from which will be used for this portion of SecretSanta. Feel free to request one of those in support of Artistle  

SecretSanta Clause

 Only participants in the SecretSanta Project who have successfully submitted their gifts are eligible to participate in the raffle.

 Winners of the Raffle will be announced on the Christmas Day journal showcasing everyone's gifts
