When youโ€™re planning a fundraising event with a twist thatโ€™s never been done before, you never know how itโ€™s going to turn out. And I just want to say, you guys have BLOWN US AWAY with the support for this event!!! The artists completed over 200 tattoos in the past 4 days. And we are extremely excited to announce that in tattoos alone, we raised $7,500!!!! We also are so thankful for those who donated, we received over $700 in donations too!

We also want to send out an apology to everyone who was on the waitlist and did not get in to get tattoos. With this being the first event, we did not expect to have this big of a turn out!!!! We want to send a thank you to those that waited for their tattoos for their patience during this event. We are blown away and are taking notes for next year. We will be absolutely making this an annual event! We will have more tattoo artists next year so we can get to more people on the waitlist and have shorter wait times!

Thank you so much to Salty Raven Tattoo LLC and Tattoos by Devon for all of their hard work this weekend. We are so grateful and cannot wait for next year!!! And we want to send out a HUGE thank you to everyone who came to our flash tattoo fundraiser!!!!

Letโ€™s see your new ink in the comments!
