Recognition and coverage of the Australian Photographers Alliance

By Darren Stones

In recent times we've had great success at selling high-quality calendars online via our sales account at RedBubble. The support from the Redbubble community towards our initiative in these tough economic times is heartening.

We have commenced an informational piece which is provided to inform media outlets, our supporters, potential supporters, sponsors, potential sponsors of the support and coverage the Australian Photographers Alliance has received since its inception on the 27th of March 2008.

All details can be found here.

All profits we raise from our calendar sales will be donated to Aussie Helpers. These monies will undoubtedly make a difference to drought-stricken farming families in rural Australia, and we appreciate each and every purchase from us.

The FREE shipping and handling we've negotiated with our sponsor RedBubble has meant that sales of our products become more attractive to buyers.
