A fandom united can accomplish amazing things, and Vampire Support is hoping to not only rally Vampire Diaries fans, but vampire fans across many fandoms, in raising money for the National Wildlife Federation. The NWF is one of many organizations working to provide Gulf oil spill relief and Vampire Support has launched its first online auction of vampire merchandise to help raise much-needed funds.
Some of the items up for bid: autographed photos of Michael Trevino and Charley Bewley (Twilight), autographed unofficial companions/guides to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, True Bood, and Vampire Diaries, a slew of Vampire Diaries merch (including t-shirts and limited edition bags), and a Vampire Diaries poster autographed by Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, and Ian Somerhalder.
Watch for more items to be posted as Vampire Support is staggering what they post to keep interest high. Head over to eBay right now to start bidding for this invaluable cause! We wanna see some HIGH NUMBERS over there.

Many of you are already familiar with Vampire Support, a vampire fandom project to raise awareness about the Gulf oil spill, run by Vampire Diaries vlogger Chloe and The VRO‘s Amber. They have an amazing opportunity to gain funding for their fundraising endeavors through Pepsi’s Do Good for the Gulf program.
The Pepsi Refresh Project allows the public to submit their ideas that will better the world, and they have a category specifically for the Gulf oil spill. Vampire Support has submitted their cause – vampire fandom-themed auctions to raise awareness and funds for the Gulf region – for the $5,000 grant level (designed to “help get good ideas off the ground”) and they need YOUR help. The ideas most voted for by the public (again, YOU) will be awarded the grant.
What you can do to help them out (voting ends on August 31st!):
- Go to their page at the Pepsi Refresh Project:
www.refresheverything.com/vampiresupport. - Check out how they plan to utilize the award money.
- Register.
- VOTE.
As of right now, Vampire Support is in 11th place; Pepsi awards up to 10 $5,000 grants a month. Again, VOTING ENDS AUGUST 31st. Let’s do some good, fandom.
