RELIEF
The purpose of the AnimAID Wildfire Relief Fund is to support individuals in the animation industry who have lost their homes or been indefinitely displaced. You can find more details here .
THE GOAL
We have launched a historic fundraising campaign which we kicked off at the ASIFA-Hollywood Annie Awards, with great success. Our new goal is now raised to $5,000,000 to support over 70 animation families who have lost or been misplaced from their homes in the recent crisis. With the full support of animation studios big and small, we are continuing our efforts with a prestigious animation art auction in partnership with Sotheby’s, and additional events to raise critical funds. Join us in this unprecedented effort to help rebuild lives and show our unwavering support for the animation community.
Sotheby's Auction
With help from studios across the industry, over 700 pieces of original animation art – from early Disney and Warner Bros. to contemporary legends – have been donated for auction. Many of these works may never be available to the public again.
The AnmiAID Auction runs April 23 – May 6 via Sotheby’s. Proceeds benefit over 70 animation families in need.
