Hi Everybody,
We picked a winner for the October drawing. Y. Lee, #1, got it! He’s already picked out what he wants me to make and all he has to do now is wait. 🙂
We raised $879 in postcard sales and donations in October, which means we’ve raised $2628 to give to students! And for all you high school kids out there, it’s time for you to start writing those essays. You can read quite a few high scoring examples here. If you know any high school students planning on going to college in the US, please let them know about this.
And remember:
-I created a new email address – [email protected]
-Newton Pens is now an official 501c3, which means your donations are tax deductible. If you want a receipt please ask so one will be given.
And since this is a new month…
During the entire month of November, if you donate or buy a pack of student art postcards you’ll automatically be entered to win a pen. When you purchase a set of cards or donate I’ll give you a number. Every penny raised will go towards the scholarships and support students going to college. Yes, you can buy as many postcard packs as you want, and for each pack, you’ll get a number.
The drawings are open for all to enter, from all parts of the world. No restrictions at all.
The raffle itself is free. If you want to enter the raffle without supporting the scholarship or helping graduating seniors (or getting any of those cool postcards) then all you have to do is send a note in the mail to:
Shawn Newton
PO Box 6084
Hot Springs, Ar. 71902
You have to let me know in your note that you’re entering the raffle, and you have to include an email address that I can reach you at.
Everybody who enters will be given a number in the order of postcards purchased or letters received in the mail, and at the end of the month I’ll draw a number to pick the winner of a custom pen. I use random.org as a number picker.
Raffle pens are limited to c/c filling system, steel nib of any size with any grind you want. If you want any extra customizations, bands or rings, special filling system, gold nib, or anything else, there will be normal charges.
I will announce income for November and the winner of the custom pen near the last day of the month.
If you have any questions please ask – [email protected]
