The Fundfax Fairraiser: Win Cool Stuff, Support a Worthy Cause

The Fundfax Fairraiser
graphic made by ElusiveEagle

Perhaps you remember Marissa, a 19 month old baby girl who was diagnosed with Infantile Spasms when she was a mere two months old. Her stuffed bunny Fairfax travels the world, sharing not only Marissa’s story but also spreading awareness of the serious pediatric epileptic condition that she, and other young children, suffer from. Approximately eight months ago we pulled together for a community project titled Fairfax ‘n’ the Chief in honor of her father (who is a fellow Halo fanatic). Today I’m proud to announce The Fundfax Fairraiser, a very special fundraising effort that will benefit sweet baby Marissa and those that are helping her through this very difficult fight.

The Fundfax Fairraiser gives you, the passionate gamer, a chance to win some absolutely incredible video game-related prizes. For every $1 you donate, you will receive one chance of winning everything from a Kotobukiya Steel Spartan 12” Figure (covered in more Bungie autographs than you could ever begin to count) to an EA Sports Pack to an autographed copy of The Godfather II to one of dozens of games spanning across the various platforms. So, you are interested in trying to win some cool stuff while helping out a worthy cause? Let’s take a gander at the things you just may find yourself the proud owner of when this is all said and done, and then we’ll get down to the nitty gritty details of it all.

Chalk Art: Master Chief

chalk master chief drawing

Every year a city that calls itself the home of many leading scientific and cultural institutions also finds itself the gracious host to hundreds of traditional and nontraditional artists alike. Coming together for an annual event called The Pasadena Chalk Festival, an entire weekend is devoted to the creation of masterpieces formed solely from small sticks of calcium sulfate. These chalky works of art, which sometimes take 20-plus hours to complete, are usually more classic in nature but this year a familiar Spartan supersoldier found himself the proud owner of a prime piece of sidewalk for the entirety of the weekend. That Master Chief, he sure knows how to get around!

Broken Friends Should Be On There Too

wii sports graph bars ftw

I’ll never forget my first experience playing Wii Sports. We loaded up some tennis and in the first game alone I smacked the chair two feet to my right, I took out the person I was playing with on my left, and I literally dove for a shot and almost went headfirst into the television. It probably won’t come as a surprise to hear that I’m currently sitting here with a broken foot. Coordination problems, I haz them.
