So far, you lovely fans have donated $772 to International Fund for Animal Welfare! I can't believe how generous you've all been. I'm pretty sure Alexander himself, as well as the folks at IFAW all love you hugely for all of this!
The Alexander Skarsgård birthday collection will be open for several months, so please consider giving a few pennies out monthly!
Once again, here's the link for easy donating.

A Thank You from IFAW!
I contacted IFAW regarding the payments and such (until I found FirstGiving.com) and told them what we were up to.
I received a message from a very friendly person answering my questions and thanking us:
Thanks for what you are doing Tiia - hope you will visit our website www.ifaw.org to learn more about our animal work. There is lots of good information there and we truly appreciate your support!So people, let's start spreading the word! Cute and maybe not-so-cute (but still precious) animals need our help! :) Leia Mais…

Birthday Cards & Animal Welfare
On August 25th (which is just around the corner) Alexander Skarsgård turns 33. I had this idea of remembering him with something fun, and came up with this.
Firstly, I wanted all the fans to have an opportunity to take part in this. So I came up with the idea of collecting all the birthday wishes into one place - that would be this very blog.
Secondly, I noticed a while back he's been taking part in saving the beautiful sea creatures we also know as WHALES. Since we can't really get together and head out to the sea to save some of these awesome animals, I thought we could raise a few dollars for the cause, as a birthday gift for Alexander.
If you have some extra money (even a small amount will be plenty!) then DONATE IT! I've created an account to FirstGiving, where you can safely and quickly donate money for our cause. So click the link:
Yes, I wanna save me some whaleys!
The fundraising will be going on for 6 months, so you can either do it later or better yet, do the Good Thing several times!
Here's where the fundraising idea started from:
- Alexander lending his support to raising awareness about the threats facing whales and their habitats, an article here.
- Tails for Whales website
- And, since the Tails for Whales website only collects photos sent by thousands of people (cool idea!), we're giving the money straight to International Fund for Animal Welfare.
Please share your opinion if you have one! I'll be moderating the comments to keep this clean & friendly, so it could take a few hours before it appears.
Thank you VERY MUCH for reading! Please be sure to pass the message along or tweet it on Twitter.
