Game Plan
Cancer touches just about everyone directly or indirectly, and has hit my family pretty hard this year. I decided to try my best at doing something – even if it's not huge – to help the people who are doing their best to find a way to cure this disease.
Since I love footy, I decided to try to create a full set of playing cards of players as if they were in an old Sega game, re-creating each player pixel by pixel. This took longer than I thought but they're finally done – just in time for the pointy end of finals!
A couple different cancers have directly affected my family recently, and while it's hard to say one organisation is more worthy than another, I've seen the great support from The Mark Hughes Foundation first hand so that's where the money will be donated. Wrong code I know – but the sporting community is one community right?
Recruitment
Even if you don't feel like buying anything, you can still really help by sharing this around! Whether it's on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, email or word of mouth, every little bit of exposure is really appreciated.
