Collage Mania opens Monday at 9 a.m CST with 235 collages available for a minimum donation of $80 to the American Cancer Society through Fiberart For A Cause. On Tuesday, May 6, the minimum donation will be $40. All the details you need to participate and all the collages are here.
Below is a little Q/A about Collage Mania from people who read all the details on how to participate here, but needed a clarificaion.
Hey, that’s what this weekend is for; please ask if you have ANY additional questions. I am expecting Monday morning to be a tad hectic.
1. Will there be a different “address” for Collage Mania on Monday morning?
No, you will just be able to start shopping at 9 a.m. CST. The url remains:

2. Can I include more than one request in one e-mail?
Yes. You can say you want all collages of this list that are available, or five collages on this list in priority order, or these two, if available, and if not, these two.
It is strictly first-come/first-serve, so plan ahead and make your list today including all the requested details.
3. Is the donation site secure?
The donation site is part of the whole American Cancer Society fundraising process, so, yes. You will receive an immediate electronic receipt directly from the American Cancer Society.
4. Why when I click the “donate” star, does it say that I am donating to the Forest Lake Relay For Life?
You can read the whole story here.
But, in brief, Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s largest grassroots fundraising effort. Fiberart For A Cause is part of the Forest Lake, MN Relay For Life for the simple reason that my sister is chair of that Relay. If your community has a Relay For Life, I urge you to become involved. It puts the fun in fundraising!
The money you donate goes directly to the ACS, but FFAC and the Forest Lake Relay For Life receive “credit” for their efforts. My sister and I raise funds for the ACS in honor of our Dad, a thirteen-year survivor of colon cancer.
5. How will I receive my collage?
After your donation is confirmed, I will send the artist your e-mail and they will contact you to arrange shipping. If you haven’t heard from them by the end of the week, let me know. I will be sending all the patron e-mails to artists by the end of May 7. Patience, grasshoppers!
