How We Help

Megaplex is dedicated to raising money for animal-based charities that support Central Florida. With the help of our attendees, Megaplex has raised over $350,000 since our first event in 2001. As we grow this number too will grow.

How Can I Help?

All weekend at Megaplex we'll be actively supporting the chosen charity by raising money in different ways:

• The Charity Auction.

  It's our biggest fundraiser every year, and it's your chance to take home any of the unique and cool items donated to our auction. Credit cards are accepted. Information on donating items for the auction is below.

• The Charity Poker Tournament.

  The poker tournament is an opportunity to have fun for a great cause!

• Fill Those Donation Jars.

  At our info desk (near Registration), and at certain events, we'll have donation boxes out. Every little bit of spare change adds up! You can also put money into the donation boxes carried around by our fursuit Box Brigade:

• Fursuiters: Join the Box Brigade.

  Fursuiters can help by becoming a part of our fuzzy fundraising force, otherwise known as the "box brigade." This involves approaching attendees throughout the convention, holding out an official Megaplex charity donation box, and looking so ridiculously cute that your targets will be unable to resist emptying their pockets into the donation jar! To participate, sign up at the information desk by Registration.

Thank you all for your generous support!

The Charity Auction

We're looking for artwork, memorabilia, collectibles, and other merchandise that can be auctioned off to raise money for the chosen charity which 100% of all sales will go to. Help us make a difference by donating what you can!

These are our submission guidelines:

1. You may wish to email us at mp-charity@megaplexcon.org with photos and a brief description of your donations, so we can preview it online and at the convention before the auction. (This will also save you some time, as we'll be taking down a description if we don't already have one when you drop the item off.)
2. Donations should be in salable condition - clean, in good shape, with all parts included.
3. Donations should be 'safe-for-work' and not of an adult nature.

Bring your donation and drop it off at the convention info desk by Registration. Please try to get your donation to us on Friday, so we have time to plan and prepare for the auction. (If you cannot attend Megaplex this year, you can email mp-charity@megaplexcon.org to arrange mailing your item in. Donations should be received at least one week before the convention.)
