Introducing the NOVA Open Charitable Foundation Blogspot!

Posted by with No comments
Hello, Everyone!


We are the NOVA Open Charitable Foundation. Our charitable efforts support:
Child’s Play Charity
Wounded Warrior Project
The Breast Cancer Research Foundation
Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontieres)
Fisher House Foundation

We raise money for these charities through the generosity of Worldwide Tabletop Wargamers ~ what we like to call the Compassionate Force. The funds are raised through online raffles of donated and specially created charity army raffles.  Every charity army gets it's own custom KRMulticase, guaranteeing safe arrival - since you need not be present to win! If you have a mailing address, we will ship your army to you.  $.95 cents of every $1 raffle ticket purchased will go to the corresponding charity. 

Last year, with three armies, the Compassionate Force raised over $10,000.  Can you help match this year's goals?

Check out our five armies HERE. Sneak peak pictures below. Take a chance on winning and support these great charities at the same time.  We need your support! Drawings will take place, podcast live, at the NOVA Open Tabletop Wargaming Convention on Sunday, August 31, 2014.

Raffle tickets for the armies can be bought HERE.

THE MACRAGGE PROJECT: Two Armies to Recreate the Iconic Battle of Macragge!

Ultramarines >  Blood & Honor: The Defense of Macragge

Tyranids > Scythes of the Behemoth

Both armies are being created by an international consortium of artists bound by their desire to help raise funds for Doctors Without Borders/Medecins Sans Frontieres

Custom crafted templates for each army by Ironheart Artisans included with each army which, of course, ship in their own custom KR Mulitcase transport.
