Thank you to everyone that donated! Now, on to forging the future...
Our Quest:
We are Dwarven Forge, and everyday we strive to create the world’s finest miniature gaming terrain. Like you, we are also just people who care deeply about what is going on in our country. So we’ve decided to band together under the banner of our company to make a difference and bring us closer to a world where all of our employees, customers, fans, and everyone -- can feel safe and free.
For that reason, we’re raising money here on Go Fund Me, to support some important and effective organizations devoted to healing and repairing the world around us – with a focus on recent events. We’re a small company and we’d love your support. So we’ll hope you’ll join us.
Here’s the plan. We’re asking for your donation. On our end, Dwarven Forge and our great friends in the gaming industry are also donating product to randomly gift to donors — which we hope that will encourage everyone to contribute. In addition to product, Dwarven Forge will kick off the donations, with $1,000 to start the campaign. But we hope your accumulated pledges, no matter the size, will quickly dwarf that amount!
Here are great organizations, which will each receive 1/3 of the total proceeds:
The Bail Project is an organization dedicated to combating mass incarceration by disrupting the money bail system. They believe that paying bail for someone in need is an act of resistance against a system that criminalizes race and poverty and an act of solidarity with local communities and movements for decarceration.
https://bailproject.org/
#SayHerName is a social movement that calls attention to police violence against Black women, girls and femmes, and demands that their stories be integrated into calls for justice, policy responses to police violence, and media representations of police brutality in the United States.
https://aapf.org/shn-campaign
Color of Change designs campaigns to end practices that unfairly hold Black people back, and champions solutions that move us all forward. As a national online force driven by 1.7 million members, they move decision-makers in corporations and government to create a more human and less hostile world for Black people in America.

Also participating are: Elderwood Academy, Die Hard Dice, Norse Foundry, Adventures & Adversaries, Nord Games, Griffin Tamer Studio, Lady Sabelle Designs, and we hope many more! And let’s hope this will be just the start of what we can all do together to make a better future for us all.
We look forward to embarking on this quest with you, and forging a better future together!
