100 Doodles, 100 Dollars Event

The SOLD OUT 100 Doodles event was held on March 21, 2009 at the Smith Andersen Editions Gallery in Palo Alto. It was a smashing success. The event raised over $22,000 for Shakti Rising and introduced us to many new supporters. According to the fabulous organizer, Catherine O’Brien, “Not only did we raise money to expand Shakti's reach but through doodler recruitment, ticket sales and event publicity Shakti Rising's good work was introduced to thousands of people. Several families who were searching for support for their daughters attended and left a little more hopeful.”

The photo on the left is of Shannon Thompson and Karen Blount holding Karen's doodle designed by Condaleeza Rice. The doodle reads "Empower and support women because 1/2 a democracy is not a democracy at all."

If you are interested in owning a piece of the inaugural event, visit www.100doodles.com. There is a link to the exhibit catalogue with all the doodles so you can order the book. Proceeds go directly to Shakti Rising.
