What an amazing community Etsy is. Add to that the love and support from the Etsy Twitter Team and you've got a powerful combo!One of my fellow EtsyTwitter Team members, Joyce Richards of Beads of Glass, was recently diagnosed with Stage 3 Lung cancer. We just found out today that it has also spread to her brain.
The Team leaders planned a sneak attack this morning on her shop, trying to clear out her inventory and help with the unbelievable medical expenses.

I just read in our Team board that South Paw Studios is donating 60% of the next 10 sales directly to Joyce. Amazing idea!

In the spirit of imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, I'm going to donate 50% of all sales now through Friday, August 21st to Joyce Richards.
