Following text in italics is from Amnesty International:

"Myanmar's military junta put Nobel Peace laureate and pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi on trial last week on flimsy charges that could land her in the country's notorious Insein Prison for 5 years.

Suu Kyi has already spent much of the past 20 years under house arrest. Her prolonged imprisonment in Insein Prison, which has been referred to as the "darkest hell-hole in
Burma," could effectively be a death sentence given her declining health.

So when we got news that she could be sent to jail, we called on activists from every corner of the globe to take a stand again on her behalf.


We know that appealing to authoritarian rulers seems like an uphill battle; but we've proven time and again that even military dictatorships and other repressive regimes are no match for Amnesty's millions-strong global movement.

That's why we're hoping you'll make a monthly gift of just $5 today to help us ensure we can continue to be there as a beacon of hope for those at risk of rights abuses.
Join the Partners of Conscience, Amnesty International's monthly giving program. "

Meme from systemaurora (who got it from dreadknot):

The first five (5) people to respond to this post will get something made by me.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations so please read carefully:

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make. What you get is what you get.

2. What I create will be just for you, with love, or at least with gusto.

3. It'll be done this year (2009).

4. I will not give you any clue what it's going to be. It will be something made in the real world and not something cyber. It may be weird or beautiful. It might or might not be edible. I may even create something totally unbelievable and surprise you at work!! Who knows?

5. I reserve the right to do something strange or quirky, but I promise not to embarrass you in public. I also reserve the right to do something fairly predictable and boring, but with, you know, thought and love.

6. In return, all you need to do is post this text into a note of your own and make 5 things for the first 5 to respond to your note.

Edit: If people would prefer me creating something cyber (Net related) for them, that is also fine. :)
