I forgot to mention here that after this year's WisCon, con_or_bust will expand to help people of color attend any SFF con of their choice. I am really, really excited about this.
Unfortunately there may not be any money left after this year's WisCon to help people until the next auction or to meet all the WisCon requests; the current total for the auction is about $4K, last year we raised $6K, and this year's requests just for WisCon are approaching $9K.
Here's a list of auction items that have relatively few bids; please link in order to spread the word as widely as possible.
Also, if you have a WisCon membership you'd like to donate, please e-mail me at knepveu at steelypips dot org.
