Today I’m writing to ask for your help.  I put together a little cause marketing deal with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums to help raise them $10,000.  So far we’ve managed $4,000.  If you take a look at the left-hand side of the blog, you can see a meter representing out progress so far.

The idea is to help the AZA through monetary donation as well as by increasing awareness of endangered and exotic wildlife around the world.  We created a game called Safari Sketch over at Red Rover Games that we’re hoping will do this for them.  Safari Sketch is a fun, addictive match-3 game that includes about 60 pieces of original wildlife artwork by my good artist friend, Tom Martinez Jr.  Through the course of the game, the player can unlock artwork and brief journal entries for each of the 60 specimens in the game.  The AZA checked over our information for accuracy and up-to-datedness (I’m sure there’s a word for that, but I can’t think of one at the moment).

So I’m asking my readers and anyone else who passes through to pick up a copy of Safari Sketch and we’ll donate a portion of the proceeds to the AZA.

Thanks,
