Smile! Album Pre-Orders For Charity

Remember that "Smile!" Album information that was released a little while ago?  It's nearing the final stages of completion, with a whopping 74 minutes of content across pretty much every musical genre.

All you need to do is hit up their donation page,  choose an amount, and send away.  You will be put on the pre-order list for the album when it releases in a few days.  All proceeds will be fired off to the Children's Cancer Association directly, meaning it's fully tax deductible.  Top contributors will also receive an extra gift, from plushies to art commissions.

For more detailed information, hit up the Bronies for Good website here!

UPDATE: The actual donation page isn't updating people into the album list, if you donated directly without following the instructions on the bronies for good site, send an email to  smile.bfg@gmail.com with the name you used on GlobalGiving and the exact amount you donated.

Looks like it's December 26th in the states now.

Break time is over, Seth.
Get back to work!

Sunset Sprinkles said...

@Pinkie Pie
Pinkie's back! :D

RavensDagger said...

Flutter with a beard is OP. Also I need cash. BRB work.

Nickvicious said...

@Equinenox Almost but not yet, maybe in some states though.

naahdude said...

Seth, this is really fucking cool and definitely deserves to get a label up top so more people can see this.

Octavia said...

What is this place filled with so many charities? lol So many Brony charities. :)

Ben Gibson said...

Without the prizes, without the music this is still a wonderful cause! Please donate to help kids out there who need it.

(Also to assuage the sadness you felt when you first read the Pinkie Cancer comic.)
(Also because of the music and flipping awesome prizes!)

Knux said...

I'll donate tomorrow, bro. Need to put some bits on my card ;/

Fluttershy said...

Poor fillies :( I'll donate twenty bits! Get well soon my little angels.

Jimmy James said...

Every genre, you say? I wonder if they play a post-avant jazzcore track.

AspectOfTheStorm said...

I'm considering donating even though I get a free copy for contributing one of my songs. It doesn't feel right to get an entire album just because I wrote 1 song for it...

Watchit said...

This is probably the coolest brony related activity I've ever done :D

Hippie-Pie said...

Yay! Just threw some their way, glad I actually had some to give this time around.

IMPORTANT : DO NOT GO DIRECTLY TO THE DONATION PAGE, GO TO THE OTHER PAGE WHERE YOU CAN FIND FULL INSTRUCTIONS !

If you donated without following the instructions, please send us a mail at smile.bfg@gmail.com with the name you used on GlobalGiving and the exact amount you donated (as proof of your identity) so that I can match it to you their email address and send you the album as soon as it's done (probably tomorrow around noon)

Hey guys! I had a lot of fun working on this album with everyone, and it's been a rewarding experience. There's nothing but heartfelt quality in there, with a few tracks for laughs as well.

And now for Vol2!

CHARITY FOR THE CHARITY GOD

Dark Symphony said...

This has been the single musical project I've been most excited about working on, purely because it has the ability to make a real difference. And as such I decided to make a donation equal to the most I've ever paid for an album :D

No way I'm high enough on the list to get one of the 10 prizes, but still! KICK CANCER IN THE HEAD!

Tears of a Valedictorian said...

I love this community. I clicked the link, wasn't sure how much money would have been raised so far, and it's on $4.5k already. Am about to head out, but will definitely donate when I'm back, hope everyone's having a great christmas.

Amnesiac said...

Wait, so the smile song isn't official? So sad, someone confirm!

Mint Julep said...

This times 1000. :<

@SimonAJ

Gimme a second to shoot off an email to BfG and thus eliminate my free time /forever/. >.>

wills316 said...

If only I had enough money to donate the minimum amount :( I'm faving this page until I do!

Mint Julep said...

Okay. Assuming the BfG people are fine with it...

Second-tier donations (I'm assuming somewhere from $35 to $50) will get you sketch from me. Think... what Joseco puts out in his livestreams for the quality I'm looking for. It's not much (and lord knows it'll still add up to be a mountain of work), but it's still /something/ for those of you that have given so much.

Navy Brony said...

This was truly a great project to work on, and the fact there were no limitations on genre definitely allowed for near limitless creativity for all the musicians involved.

Donated $25 myself :)

This is why our fandom is the best. I haven't seen any other fandom that had charity as such a driving force behind it. Supreme God-Leader Celestia is proud.

King9 said...

Those poor foals! I will give them moneys.

Mint Julep said...

7200. Just shy of 7200.

You guys are amazing. Seriously.

Hipster Rarity said...

My bank account has failed me. I don't have nearly the amount I'd like to have given.

fenrir928 said...

8600 USD donated, soon you can all say it.so very soon.

fenrir928 said...
